The Hostess City of the South
Welcomes You
Savannah isn't just one of the world's most beautiful cities; it's a living legacy of an 18th-century American dream. Known today as the "Hostess City," we pride ourselves on unmatched Southern hospitality, historic charm, and a genuinely welcoming spirit to all visitors from around the world.
Discover America's First Planned City
Founded in 1733 by the visionary James Oglethorpe, Savannah was America's very first planned city. Oglethorpe, a remarkable abolitionist and social reformer, envisioned a bold utopia built on Enlightenment ideals of fairness and self-reliance. He promised everyone a fresh start.
Explore the Heart of Savannah
At the heart of that original design is our famous grid system. This intentional layout makes Savannah one of the most walkable cities in the country.
Stroll with us:
• 22 Historic Squares: Each is a unique park waiting to be discovered.
•. Iconic Live Oaks: Draped in signature Spanish moss.
