Historic Georgetown is a UNESCO World Heritage City. Throughout the historic area are these metal sculptures giving information in a whimsical way. We probably found only a handful of them while we explored the historic district. Take a walk and keep your eye out for these fun, unique signs. We think they are much better than the typical tourist information sign!
