• Top 3 Places to Visit: The heart of downtown Baltimore is home to the Inner Harbor Marina, a treasured waterfront prize that features water taxis, docks, dinner boats, and more. It is located within walking distance of some of the city's best storefront shopping boutiques, restaurants, and attractions. The National Aquarium is also one of Baltimore's best attractions to visit. With hundreds of species and thousands of animals, there’s something at the aquarium for tourists of all ages. If you happen to be in town for a convention, conference, or to catch a show, you’ll probably pay a visit to the Baltimore Convention Center. If you aren’t flying in for a convention or concert, check a listing of the center’s upcoming events. You may find one to attend while in town. 

Bizarre Baltimore: There’s much more to Baltimore than what meets the eye. There’s a lesser-known undercurrent that only the locals are privy to—a cultural scene that boasts the perfect combination of spookiness and artistry with a touch of avant-garde appeal. From quirky antique shops to grisly museums, the weirder side of Baltimore is all but usual, and its restaurants and eateries are no exception.

First up—Papermoon Diner. The diner features a giant Pez collection, a host of staged mannequins, and caged dolls. You can visit the Papermoon Diner for a quick photo-op or stick around for some potato cake, avocado toast, and other Baltimore breakfast favorites. Next up is The Horse You Came in On Saloon. This 200-year-old bar that is rumored to have hosted Edgar Allan Poe is home to jumbo crab pretzels, pit beef sandwiches, and barn burgers. Stick around for dinner, and you can catch a live local band. For a unique American fare experience, Wicked Sisters is the place to go. Signature asiago, cheddar, and smoked gouda crab dip isn’t the only thing you’ll drool over. Your first visit won't be your last with dishes like spicy sweet potato soup and crab mac n’ cheese.
