Fifteen hours in Savannah - Glimpses of the Historic District

The pictures hereunder  were taken in June 2016, on a Sunday morning between 8 and 9 am. The squares and streets were very quiet. The Talmadge Memorial Bridge that spans the Savannah River and links Georgia to South Carolina. It has been compared to the Golden Gate Bridge for impressiveness. An American Revolution Memorial A view of City Market Savannah's Candy Kitchen Another view of City Market Wet Willie's, one of a chain of bars known for their rainbow of frozen drinks, plus offbeat pub fare A statue of Johnny Mercer in Ellis Square Water Feature in Johnson Square A pedestrian avenue in Johnson Square   The series of pictures below are of the sundial, placed in Johnson Square, to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the City of Savannah. One side of the base  is decorated in mosaics that depict views of the streets of Savannah in the early days.   Agapanthus in Wright Square Telfair Square Telfair Museums and Academy
