Forsyth Park Fountain Savannah Georgia
The 150 year old fountain in Savannah’s Forsyth Park has a tradition of “greening” the water to start off the cities Saint Patrick’s Day festivities.
Savannah Georgia is a year round visitors destination, and has the second largest Saint Patricks Day celebration in the US with three full days of festivities.
Love love love! I was there many years ago for a seminar. It was the week of St. Patrick’s day. Had we all known about the festivities many of us would have stayed an extra day! One of my favorite trips was to Savannah. Our hotel was on the water, and a couple of days before St. Patrick’s day the road on the water closed down and there was all kinds of festivities. I loved walking around the parks, all the green trees and plants, and the green fountains!! So cool! I had to fly out the morning of 3/17 among all the parade fan fair! 😢
It’s a city of incredible beauty, glad you had the chance to visit
Wow! Fantastic fountain photos! Here we’ve postponed the dying of the river green due to the virus. It makes me wonder if they’ll pick a random day in June to have the St Patrick’s parade.
Parade is cancelled here too, but the visitors seem to be enjoying the flowers and warm weather
Wow, they’re our “neighbor” and I had no idea it was a big deal there. Loved the green fountain Alice.
