The image below is of the map I carried folded in my
shirt pocket during our five days in Savannah, and it's a bit worse for
wear. But it's the best map of the historic district and squares
I've seen. It was given to me from a huge glued block of them at our
hotel. The concierge indicated the hotel (Staybridge Suites) by the pink
circle in the upper right corner of the map. Click

and location captions that follow.
Alternate method of touring the
pictures
Many of the squares and interesting sites in the
map below are "hot spots" which you can click on to jump to
photos and information about that site. You can determine which
are active by scanning your cursor over them. If the arrow turns into a
hand the spot is active. Also, to help in knowing the sites you will
jump to, text will open when you are over the spot. Finally, many sites
were not noted, or were noted inaccurately, in the printed map so I've
added red balls to help you find the hot spots and more accurately note
the sight location. If you tour the pictures via
the hot spots, make sure you close the separate copy of the map and all the
other pages in this series before you use the hot spots, and
close pages that open after you've seen what you want.
There are typically several photos about each
site, so after you pop out to them make sure you scroll up and down to
find all the pertinent photos. After you've popped out to a few sites to
get a feel for Savannah, I suggest you then scroll down each web page in
sequence to see the pictures, read the text, and follow reference links
that interest you as the story unfolds. The hot spot map below is
intended to help you find specific photos and information. You can come
back to this page for this access after you digest the material in the
six-page series.
After a hearty
breakfast of scrambled eggs, bacon, coffee cake, hash browns, fruit,
orange juice and plenty of coffee (included in our hotel rate) we began
our walk by heading down Lincoln towards Reynolds Square.
