Cemetery. Bonaventure became the name in 1907. Bonaventure Cemetery is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Savannah. The cemetery is famous because of the movie and book "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil". John Berendt's book was partially set in this cemetery, and the haunting cover photograph was taken from the cemetery. To view this cemetery is simply awesome, there are no other words to descirbe it. Spanish Moss draped trees, old tombstones, crypts, over-grown bushes, are surrounded by marshland and rivers. Wondering through this cemetery is quite an experience.
located on 330 Bonaventure Rd. Bonaventure Cemetery is certainly one of the many highlights of Savannah! |
