Forsyth Park

Why does this Park sound familiar to you?  Well have you watched Forest Gump, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, or The longest Yard?  These are merely some of the most well noted movies with filmed scenes at  Savannah’s famous Forsyth Park.  

The Park itself offers thirty historic acres with huge live oaks draped in Spanish moss.  Some attributes that help to make this a place to go to include tennis courts, basketball court, grassy fields, amphitheater, fragrant garden for the blind, and a 150 year old fountain.  The fountain at Forsyth Park was erected in 1958.  For St. Patrick’s Day, like the river in Chi town, the water is dyed a lovely shade of green.

Forsyth Park is definitely  place to relax and walk around absorbing the culture and surroundings.  Local art students and artist are likely to be among the park’s daily residence. Be sure to put this destination on your bucket list when visiting Savannah.
