|  | Charleston, West Virginia is a surprising city, one which manages to exude a big city atmosphere and still maintain its small town charm. It is the capital and largest metropolis in the state of West Virginia, situated at the confluence of the Elk and Kanawha Rivers, and surrounded by lush green mountains.
In addition to being the seat of government for the Mountain State, Charleston is home to West Virginia University, Charleston and is also an industrial city - both the heart and hub of America's coal mining industry. Some of the most decent, hard working and friendly people on earth live in Charleston, West Virginia. |

Enjoyed this page on Charleston Stephen. This city is rich in culture and history. Great tip on free internet acces in public libraries. Hans & I make use of them often. Double-dipped chocolate covered peanuts - sounds scrumpdillyicious. | mikelisaanna Sat Jun 10, 2006 18:50 UTC

Nice page! I did think that statue of "Stonewall" Jackson looked a little like Charlie Chaplin! Not sure which of them would have been more offended??? | wvworkman Thu Apr 20, 2006 00:05 UTC
Thank you for the wonderful review of Charleston! It's nice to know that non-Charlestonians find it as charming as us life-timers. :) |
