Savannah Riverfront | 沙凡納水岸

The Riverfront corridor is now the most popular tourist spot in the city. Originally composed of factor’s wharves and warehouses to serve the port, it is now filled with curious souvenir and antique shops, pubs, restaurants and cozy historic inns. No matter day or night, the Riverfront is always crowded with visitors, venders, artists and local residents. It represents leisure and vitality.

水岸走廊是目前沙凡納城最受歡迎的觀光景點。在十九世紀初,這裡原來是進出口商埠碼頭與倉庫,轉運當時盛極一時的棉花、米、煙草和航海用品等等,如今轉身一變,成為古意盎然的紀念品店、古董店、酒吧、各式餐廳和旅館。無論日夜,沙凡納水岸都擠滿了觀光客、小販、當地居民和街頭藝人,在這裡享受悠閒的時光。它代表的,就是沙凡納市休閒和活力的一面。
