Not everyone knows what most Greenvillians already know. Greenville, South Carolina, the hometown of Furman University, is likely the most underrated city in the South according to Travel + Leisure magazine. Travel writer Lauren Dana Ellman lays out the reasons why in her piece, “This Is the South’s Most Underrated City—With Waterfalls, Michelin-starred Restaurants, and Blue Ridge Mountain Views.” She describes Greenville’s food scene, shopping, breweries, Falls Park, the Prisma Health Swamp Rabbit Trail, nearby Travelers Rest and more. But she just might only be scratching the surface, says one reader in the comments section.
