I've lived in Columbia for almost 27 years now, its so cool seeing & hearing what people from out-of-town think about Columbia. Gives me a new perspective. So cool. I don't ever see Cola from the sky, the drone shot was awesome.

To whom it may concern, Lord and Lady Spoda are not rich, if you would let the ads play without skipping them it would help them continue to bring us this free education and entertainment, thank you.

College kids and Ft Jackson soldiers don’t make much that’s why median income is low..

Outstanding. I dearly miss Columbia. Served there in military for a time, my uncle later opened a large business there employing many. Then my oldest son and then one of his daughters graduated from the University of South Carolina there in Columbia. I have family buried in a church yard there. Oh how I miss Columbia.

You should've shown Blue Sky's mural on the side of a building. It is called Tunnel Vision and it has caused some people to drive into it at night... 😂

The University of South Carolina has one of the largest enrollments in America. Many of the students are from out of state. Columbia also has Benedict College and Allen university plus several other small colleges. Too many Americans do not know as much as they should about American cities. Many Americans are geographically challenged. I mean no disrespect by stating this. There appears to be too little study placed on learning geography in the public school system. At least when I attended school. I learned more about geography after I graduated from high school.

Beautiful footage of the Met/Soda city/the capital/Columbia ... Downtown(Main Street) and historical district will always make you feel like the census are skewed.. however, go across the tracks(as old folks would say). You will then understand why the census are they way they are. Most students, when they graduate, will remain in Columbia. I was one of those students, I lived there for years off of North Main. It's always been a beautiful city to me, even in some of the dilapidated areas. It's just something about Columbia. Columbia College is there, they just became a coed college like 2 maybe 3 yrs ago. It was originally a private all girls school. Also, two well-known HBCUs, Allen University and Beniedict. Both colleges were founded in 1870..Allen University was originally named Payne Institute, after its founder, Daniel Alexander Payne. He was an Apostle of black education here in the U.S. Payne Institute was later renamed Allen University in honor of Bishop Richard Allen, founder of the AME Church. Benedict College was founded by Bathsheba A. Benedict, also in 1870, on land of a former 110-acre plantation. Benedict was originally a school for teachers. However, the first classes were taught at an elementary school level bc former enslaved had been prohibited to read and write. Eventually, Benidict was able to insituite its original plan, which was theology, to train and educate the teacher and preacher. Now, both colleges have a broad curriculum. There is so much history here. I could ramble forever.... It's funny that you wanted to get into the church. It's locked! Um yeah🤣🤣 you can only do church tours in Downtown Charleston. And your correct SC was the first to secede, bc Lincoln was newly elected and wanted to abolish slavery, and SC wasn't too ecstatic 'bout that.

It's so weird seeing you drive around where I live on Saturdays. Main Street gets completely shut down and turned into an open air market called soda City market. It's really neat!

Just FYI, they recovered the Hunley a little over 20 years ago and have a museum in Charleston. Also, a little surprised you didn't show Rita the Meter Maid, the Never Burst Chain, and some of the Murals in the downtown area. The nearby Congaree National Park is also a fine place with one of the largest collections of big trees in North America, boasting both state and national champion sized trees. Just so much more than can be covered in a single video, so you'll have to come back.

The picture in the State House was a depiction of Francis Marion “The Swamp Fox” fighting the British. The construction of the capital building began before the civil war and was shot upon by the union during their campaign, my dad always laughed about how the union ran when they couldn’t knock it down with cannon fire or burn it down. The wooden capital building which stood beside this building was burned completely and destroyed leaving heat marks/stains on the granite. Stars are placed on the east side indicating the cannon ball strikes.

I was stationed at Fort Jackson for 4 months for schooling and saw a little bit of Columbia. Some good, some bad. Thanks for going in deeper, I'm seeing and learning way more through your eyes. You're an amazing tour guide and I love the drone shots!!
