Let Baltimore charm you
Once a working-class port town, Baltimore has more than earned its nickname Charm City. Teeming with quaint streets and picturesque harbors, it also houses countless museums, a plethora of historic buildings, and two famous ballparks.
But while there’s plenty to see, take your time to appreciate Baltimore’s trendy restaurants and windy harbor views. Stroll through expansive Patterson Park, get lost in the National Aquarium’s coral reef, and snag a delicious crab cake at the iconic Inner Harbor.
