Charlotte to Anderson bus

A mecca for fans of speed in general and for NASCAR in particular, Charlotte is a burgeoning urban center that still retains its southern charm. Even if you are not a hardcore fan of NASCAR, it is still worth taking the time to check it out. Housing more than just plaques dedicated to legendary drivers, the museum also features high-tech exhibits, as well as racing simulators to keep you enthralled. If cars are not your thing, the bustling Uptown area, which houses the city’s top museums such as Discovery Place or Mint Museum Uptown, will offer a day’s worth of interesting facts to enjoy. When you wish to get away from the hustle and bustle of Uptown, Freedom Park, located about three miles north of the city center, provides a natural refuge where you can recover.

Charlotte’s food scene is brimming with life, as modernized Southern staples take the city by storm. Perhaps the best place to enjoy the tastiest Southern dishes in town is at Price’s Chicken Coop. If you are looking to enjoy some fine barbecues, Midwood Smokehouse or Noble Smoke might have what you need.

Charlotte’s busiest bus station is at W 4th St in the heart of the city, offering bus trips by several carriers like Greyhound and Jefferson Lines to other cities such as Richmond or New York. The city is served by three Amtrak lines: the Crescent, the Carolinian, and the Piedmont. Travelers can catch these trains at the station on Tryon St in Lockwood. The main airport of the city is the Charlotte Douglas International Airport, which is the sixth-busiest airport in the country. It is located 6 miles from the city center.

Situated in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Anderson is popularly known as the Electric City because of its focus on hydroelectric power. Locals and visitors in Anderson enjoy picturesque nature sites like Lake Hartwell, a top fishing and hiking spot in South Carolina, and the Sadlers Creek State Park for camping, picnics, water sports, and bird watching. There aren't a lot of historical sites, but a notable mention is the South Carolina Plantation Tours, taking you through life in the 1800s.

Anderson is a major food hub with impressive farms, breweries, and restaurants that attract people to the city. Have a pint of craft beer in the Carolina Bauernhaus Ales or handmade chocolates at CocoBon Chocolatier. The different farms like Denver Downs Farm and Split Creek Farm take you through fun tours and offer award-winning, farm-fresh foods. Adults can enjoy moonshine and whiskey at the Palmetto Distillery or explore shops and nightlife in the Downtown Historic District.

If you're visiting Anderson, the best way is by bus from other cities. PandaNY Bus and Wanda Coach provide the bus routes. The city also offers public transportation, including the Electric City Transit for disabled and senior citizens.
