Savannah (US Part V)

Savannah at the Atlantic coast is the oldest town in Georgia. Established in 1733 it soon became an important centre for cotton export to Europe. Today Savannah houses the nation's most valuable living collection of 18th and 19th century architecture. Savannah was well planned by its founders and consists of a series of nice central squares and with beautiful old buldings and cobble stone roads (picture 1 and 3).

We spend 2 nice days in Savannah just strolling around the squares and looking at the old buildings. We also went to the nearby Tybee Island with its majestic lighthouse and nice beach...
