Just realized the 'must-see' spot in Savannah everyone raves about felt totally overrated

I visited Forsyth Park last weekend expecting this amazing historic vibe, but honestly it just felt like a crowded city park with a fancy fountain. Everyone online says it's the heart of the city, but I found the real charm in the quiet squares a few blocks over. Am I the only one who thinks the most famous spot in a city is sometimes the least interesting?

Yeah, that happens everywhere. The big name spot gets all the hype so it's packed and feels like a tourist trap. I mean, the best parts of any place are usually the quiet corners nobody talks about online.

Totally get that. Found a tiny bookshop in Seattle that blew my mind, kinda like @the_charlie's coffee find.

Quiet corners nobody talks about" is so true. I had that happen in New Orleans, where I skipped a famous cafe for a random corner store with better coffee. Sometimes the real vibe is just off the main path.
