Fun & Leisure in and near Baltimore, MD

Contrary to what some hungry tourists think, the list of must-do Baltimore activities is not limited to "eat crab cakes" and "eat more crab cakes." In fact, there are so many things to do in Baltimore that you might want to skip lunch altogether. The historic landmark and seaport known as Baltimore Inner Harbor is a great place to start. Here, you can explore the only Civil War ship still afloat, attend the latest event at the massive Baltimore Convention Center, and board a boat to visit the inspiration for the national anthem, Fort McHenry National Monument. One of the great things about Baltimore is how it always seems to keep one foot in the past and one in the present. Oriole Park at Camden Yards, a retro-designed field in an exciting, up-and-coming neighborhood, clearly embodies both.
