Fort Pulaski, famous for being a safe haven for enslaved African Americans, has now been converted into a national monument where visitors can learn more about the city’s heritage. Among the most unique destinations in Savannah is the historic Bonaventure Cemetery, which serves as the final resting place for many famous people.
