Charm City

Visitors enjoying our beautiful Inner Harbor

Beautiful Waterfront Views

Baltimore boasts stunning waterfront views from so many areas...the Inner Harbor, Fells Point, Canton, and Federal Hill. Each of these areas are unique in their own right, and a must see when visiting Charm City. As you look at the water, you'll see many vessels dotting the Harbor, from Water Taxis to sail boats, from kid-powered paddle boats to the USS Constellation. The people of this wonderful city are the most friendly and proud as any place you may visit, and we are very proud to share Baltimore with visiotrs. Come for a visit and see why Baltimore is refered to as "Charm City", and see why so many of us are proud to call this area home.

Amazing Maryland Seafood....

You can't come to Baltimore without trying our outstanding seafood! Everyone knows Baltimore is famous for our Maryland steamed blue crabs. Yum! It's always easy to distinguish the locals from the visitors when eating these Chesapeake Bay gems...locals are able to work quickly in de-shelling these delights while visitors seem to take pleasure in smashing the shells with a crab mallet! Regardless of technique, Maryland blue crabs are a dining delight to both visitors and locals and represent just one aspect of the great seafood found in Baltimore.

Many Attractions To See....

Baltimore is known for our beautiful Inner Harbor and great seafood, but there is so much more to see in our amazing city. Spend an afternoon observing aquatic life at the National Aquarium, or enjoy a pleasant day outdoors at the Baltimore Zoo. For history buffs, you can check out Fort McHenry, and for baseball fans, you can visit the Babe Ruth Museum. Enjoy the beauty of art at our breathtaking Walters Art Museum, then end your day by observing the entire Baltimore area at the "Top of the World", located on the 27th floor of the World Trade Center in Baltimore. After taking in all of our unique sights, after chowing down on our amazing seafood, and after strolling through the beautiful Inner Harbor, you will be able to proudly boast to your friends that you had the unforgettable opportunity to visit Charm City.

 There have been shootings in the mall in the middle of the inner harbor- the most tourist laden area of Baltimore. The city is not safe and you should be very cautious when visiting. I would recommend not visiting the city until the crime subsides.
