It’s the “Central Park” of Savannah! This 30-acre park is a great place to walk or ride around. 🚴
You can stop for a drink and enjoy local artists.
The park is named for Georgia’s 33rd governor. The city’s most famous fountain—installed in 1858 and modeled after the fountains at the Place de la Concorde in Paris—crowns the northern edge of the park, inspiring contemplation and selfies, proposals and weddings. Sometimes the stroll to the fountain is dotted with local artisans working to the sounds of a lively trumpet, and on quieter days it’s just the locals out with their dogs, avid readers nestled deep in their comfy hammocks and art students sketching their surroundings from a nearby bench.
Further into the park are two children’s playgrounds—one for littles and another for bigger kids. On the east side is a concert and event space

Savannah is known around the world for the Oglethorpe Plan, which established the way the town of Savannah would be laid out around a series of squares.
Savannah's 22 squares are located across a one-square-mile area of downtown. These Squares were
originally used to practice and drill for the militia but today they are gathering places of beauty and history.

This is a great option for anyone staying in Savannah a little longer. Tybee island is a short, 30-min, scenic drive from historic downtown Savannah.
This three-square-mile enclave is packed with hyper-local shopping, dining, bars and bike trails. It’s most notable for its white, sandy beaches, the historic Tybee Light house/Museum and is home to Fort Screven (which is open for tours).
