Traveler advice

Don't miss

The Saturday farmer's market, Soda City, is a must!

Soda City drags along Main Street in front of the State Capitol Building.
What to pack

Famously Hot Columbia

Of course, you would always want to check the weather. Columbia is known as "Famously Hot." Our summers are very hot! Pack light if you are coming for a summer visit. Bring extra clothes for multiple showers a day!
