Baltimore at a Glance
Most visitors to Maryland cannot
resist spending time in Baltimore,
which is often fondly referred to as Charm City. Baltimore's
Inner Harbor, one of the city's main highlights, is flooded with water taxis,
cruise boats and sailboats, all of which offer tours. Always bustling with locals,
tourists and excitement, the Inner Harbor is one of the oldest seaports in the
United States and is home to attractions
such as the National
Aquarium and the USS
Constellation. A feature point of the Inner Harbor is Harborplace,
a complex that consists of two malls side-by-side that are filled with dozens
of shops and restaurants. Free performances are also offered at the Amphitheatre
at Harborplace during the summer months. Depending on which season you are
visiting, the Baltimore
Orioles Baseball Club (March through October) or the Baltimore
Ravens Football Club (September through December) are sure to make sports
fans cheer.
