History and Monuments

Baltimore’s story is essential to learning about the influential people and significant moments that shaped American history and the African American experience. Explore historic sites like Fort McHenry, birthplace of the national anthem, Edgar Allan Poe’s home-turned-museum, the Washington Monument (built before the one in D.C.!) and historic ships, including the USS Constellation, the last remaining sail-only warship commissioned by the U.S. Navy. And the best way to see it all is with a guided tour.

Explore the Outdoors

Baltimore is full of unexpected open spaces featuring parks, promenades and waterfront settings for outdoor recreation, fitness activities and relaxation. Join a kayak tour of the Inner Harbor or other waterfront activities, take advantage of miles of scenic walking trails for a breathtaking view of the city; and then relax at a spa or fitness class. And don’t miss out on the top golf courses in the area.
