Historic Downtown Savannah, Georgia Part I. - Photo Essay

Recently, I blogged about writing a young adult vampire short story set in Savannah. These are the photos I am using to draw inspiration for my story. I visited Savannah in December of 2010. It is a wonderful town filled with so much for the writer's imagination, ghost tours, historic tours, the booming riverfront nightlife, antiquing, and a great art community. I hope you are inspired to write as well. I'll be posting more pictures on Sunday.



Savannah is filled with lots of historic squares.

















 
To the riverfront.




Riverfront shops.

















Oldest bell  in Georgia from 1802.
Used to signal the end of a work day and also
as a fire alarm.


















Built in 1887, The Savannah Cotton Exchange
was the hub of the cotton industry on the Atlantic Ocean.



















One of many riverboat tours offered.















The original cobblestone streets of Savannah.




















Take the elevator and not the original steep stairs.
