Forsyth Park, Public park in Savannah, United States.
The 30-acre green space contains a central fountain from 1858, multiple walking paths, tennis courts, basketball facilities, and two children's playgrounds.
The land was donated by William Brown Hodgson in 1840, making it older than New York's Central Park and establishing it as Savannah's first recreational space.
The park hosts the Sidewalk Arts Festival in April, Savannah Jazz Festival in September, and numerous community gatherings throughout the year.
The park maintains daily operations from 7:00 AM to 11:00 PM, offering free admission, parking, and a Saturday farmers market with local products.
A special garden section contains fragrant plants specifically designed for blind visitors, converted from a former military training fort structure.
