Midway between West Virginia's two largest cities (Charleston and Huntington), pastoral Putnam County provides metro-valley residents a convenient retreat from hustle and bustle.
That's only one of many reasons it's a favorite destination here at West Virginia Explorer.
The Putnam County Convention and Visitor Bureau has just posted an article regarding its best cozy winter hideaways. We had to share!

Get spicy at Thai Valley Kitchen
If you like the heat, you can find fresh, delicious, and healthy options at Thai Valley Kitchen. Don't worry: if you aren't an adventurous eater there are plenty of mild options as well. We recommend the pineapple fried rice and a Thai tea.
