描述
Unearth stories behind the ornate graves of Bonaventure Cemetery, Savannah. Embrace the solemn beauty with a walking tour of the graveyard made famous by the book “Midnight Garden of Good and Evil.”
Step onto the worn paths of Bonaventure, a 19th-century cemetery lined with monuments, shaded by oak trees and Spanish moss. Find yourself walking in a time bubble as modern Savannah fades into the background the further you follow your tour guide along the Wilmington River.
Walk through one of the most-photographed cemeteries in the world and discover why tourists are drawn in from around the world. Follow your guide through the 100-acre historical site that looks more like an art museum than a burial ground.
See famed works like “Little Gracie,” a hauntingly beautiful marble statue that resembles the 6-year-old that was buried here so closely her parents couldn’t bear to look at it. Learn about the lives and deaths of southern icons like the Mercer family who were laid to rest here.
