You can't go to Savannah without admiring the Savannah River on historic River Street. The old cobblestone street weaves you through historic buildings, shops and award-winning restaurants. Be sure to check out one of the many rooftop bars that overlook the river as well. Pro-tip: Downtown Savannah is open-container so feel free to grab a drink to-go from one of the many restaurants or bars as you walk around and explore!
Located in the heart of the Historic District, Forsyth Park is one of Savannah’s most iconic and picturesque spots. With its famous white fountain and moss-draped oaks it's the perfect place to take in the beauty of the city.

Savannah's squares are a defining feature of the city and there are 23 throughout the city. Many squares contain monuments, fountains, and oak trees draped with spanish moss. Fun fact: Chippewa square is where the famous bench scenes in Forrest Gump were filmed. Though the bench isn't there anymore, it's still cool to take pictures of where it was filmed (at the intersection of Bull and Hull St)!
