Райт-сквер

Ваш тур начинается в центре северной стороны площади Райт перед памятником Гордону. Вы узнаете, как и почему была основана Саванна, и почему генерал Джеймс Оглторп решил основать колонию на 40-футовом утесе. Вы также узнаете, как устроена площадь и почему. Знаете ли вы, что порт Саванны является третьим по величине портом в стране? Вы узнаете, кем был Томочичи, вождь индейцев Ямакроу, и почему он похоронен под памятником Гордону в центре площади.

Независимая пресвитерианская церковь

Независимая пресвитерианская церковь была основана в 1755 году на Эллис-сквер (первоначально Рыночной площади), но была уничтожена пожаром. Восстановление на площади Телфэр и разрушенный ураганом. Сегодня он находится на углу Булл-стрит и Оглторп-авеню, где был построен в 1855 году. Вы узнаете, какой президент США венчался в церкви в 1885 году и почему эта шпиль так известна сегодня.

52

Площадь Чиппева

Здесь вы увидите, где сидел Форрест Гамп со своей коробкой конфет в ожидании автобуса. Памятник в центре Чиппева-сквер - это генерал Джеймс Оглторп, а не капитан Морган. Мы согласны, что он действительно очень похож на капитана Моргана, и это было бы уместно, поскольку в Саванне разрешены чашки на вынос. Здесь вы узнаете о человеке, стоящем за колонией Саванна, и о том, что представляет собой его памятник.

53

Дом-музей и экскурсии Old Sorrel Weed House

Sorrel Weed House — один из самых посещаемых привидениями домов в Саванне. Мы пройдем мимо дома и расскажем вам о серой кирпичной стене Саванны, окружающей двор, и вы узнаете, почему на кирпиче остались отпечатки пальцев. Откуда взялся этот кирпич?

55

Дом Грин-Мелдрим

Этот дом, построенный в 1853 году, является лучшим образцом готической архитектуры на юге. Этот дом стоил 93 000 долларов, или 3,2 миллиона долларов сегодня, и был самым дорогим домом в Саванне в 1800-х годах. Этот дом вошел в историю как штаб-квартира генерала Шермана во время его похода к морю, когда он оккупировал Саванну.

56

СКАДистория

Первоначально построенное и использовавшееся как здание Добровольческой гвардии Саванны, теперь оно принадлежит SCAD. Проходим мимо этого здания.

57

Чайная комната Грифона

Чайная комната Грифона расположена внутри того, что мы называем Домом Шрайнера. Внутри чайной Грифона находится музей, который когда-то использовался как аптекарь Соломона, и в нем до сих пор сохранились оригинальные шкафы из красного дерева и шкафчики, используемые для хранения лекарств. Чайная комната Gryphon — одно из наших любимых мест для обеда, ужина или отдыха за чашечкой чая!

58

Дом-музей Мерсера Уильямса

Дом Мерсера Уильямса, прославившийся благодаря книге Джона Берендта «Полночь в саду добра и зла». Это реальная история Джима Уильямса, купившего дом в 1969 году, и убийства его помощника Дэнни в 1981 году. Книга была выпущена в 1993 году и продержалась в списке бестселлеров Нью-Йорка 216 недель, дольше, чем любая другая книга в истории. Несколько лет спустя был выпущен фильм, который помог Саванне попасть на карту туризма. В конце концов, все любят время от времени хороший скандал. Мы рекомендуем прочитать книгу или хотя бы посмотреть фильм перед посещением Саванны.

59

Дом Армстронга

Теперь известный как дом Армстронга-Кесслера, мы поговорим об истории дома и о том, кто сегодня живет в этом доме площадью более 26 000 квадратных футов.

Сегодня это частный дом, и он не открыт для экскурсий.

60

Форсайт Парк

Форсайт Парк, здесь наша экскурсия заканчивается. Этот парк начался в 1848 году всего с 10 акров, сегодня он занимает 30 акров. Это наш Центральный парк, которым любят и молодые, и пожилые. Венец Саванны, наш фонтан в парке Форсайт. Чего большинство людей не понимают, так это того, что это был заказ по почте из Франции, установленный в 1858 году. Его обязательно нужно увидеть, и вы должны сфотографироваться перед этим удивительным фонтаном.
