Savannah Historic District

Savannah Historic District

The Savannah Historic District is a charming old part of the city filled with cobblestone streets, grand houses, and 22 leafy public squares. Giant oak trees draped with soft Spanish moss shade the sidewalks and parks.

It is loved as one of the most beautiful and best-preserved historic towns in America, planned way back in the 1700s. Families enjoy horse-drawn carriage rides, riverfront ships, and tasty Southern treats.

Pretty Scenery

The green squares are like tiny parks with fountains, flowers, and benches under towering oak trees. Along the river you can watch big ships float by and browse shops in old brick warehouses.

History

Savannah was Georgia's very first city, laid out in 1733 in a neat grid of streets and squares. Many homes and churches are more than 200 years old and look almost exactly as they did long ago.

Fun Activities

You can clip-clop through town on a horse-drawn carriage or hop on a fun trolley tour. Sweet shops sell homemade pralines and taffy, and the riverside is perfect for a family stroll.
