About Charleston, WV

Charleston, West Virginia's capital, sits in the Kanawha River valley where Interstates 64 and 77 meet at the notorious "Spaghetti Junction." The city serves as a natural stopping point for cross-country travelers and a hub for the surrounding coal and chemical regions. Popular routes include I-64 west to Huntington, I-77 south toward the New River Gorge, and daily commutes from Hurricane and South Charleston. The 293-foot gold-domed State Capitol, covered in 23.5-karat gold leaf, dominates the skyline and serves as a landmark visible from miles away on approaching highways.
