From wikipedia:

Bonaventure Cemetery is a public cemetery located on a scenic bluff of the Wilmington River, east of Savannah, Georgia. The cemetery became famous when it was featured in the 1994 novel Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil by John Berendt, and in the movie, directed by Clint Eastwood, based on the book.

Being by the river, there were lots and lots of mosquitoes :(

As a kid, I remember several ornamental metalwork shops located on S. Presa. Today, the craft is represented both by newer works and by exceptional remnants of its past such as this wrought iron gate at the former location of Royal Ironworks.

Supplying the souks with lanterns, cutlery and anything else you can imagine that is make of metal these metalworkers hand down generations of knowledge and practice to the next generation so continuing the steady metalwork trade.

After the tour of Essaouira with the guide, I wandered the streets for hours. Essaouira may be my favorite place that I visited in Morocco.

You could buy just about anything in the souk.
