Description
This photo captures the beautiful blooming azalea at Bonaventure Cemetery in Savannah, Georgia. Bonaventure Cemetery is one of the most visited tourist attractions in Savannah especially during spring season.
Bonaventure Cemetery
Bonaventure Cemetery was developed on the historically significant site of Bonaventure Plantation. The peaceful setting rests on a scenic bluff of the Wilmington River, east of Savannah. The site was purchased for a private cemetery in 1846 and became a public cemetery in 1907. This charming site has been a world famous tourist destination for more than 150 years due to the old tree-lined roadways, the many notable persons interred, the unique cemetery sculpture and architecture, and the folklore associated with the site and the people. The entrance to the cemetery is located at 330 Bonaventure Road and is the largest of the municipal cemeteries containing over 100 acres. The cemetery is open to the public daily from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The main office of the Department of Cemeteries is located in the Bonaventure Administrative Building at the entrance of the cemetery.
