My wife and I are visiting the states and stopped in Savannah for a weekend. Living in London, we are fortunate to have access to many of the finest art galleries in the world. After a carriage ride through the city we browsed the galleries in City Market. Among the corridors and catacombs of City Market we were surprised to... more

Typical souvenier shops seen in most popular destinations. However, there was a strong focus on local art which made the market better than most. more

In addition, they also serve excellent coffee, and have just recently (as of Fall 2004) brought in some of the greatest paninis, a traditional Italian sandwich,... more
