Baltimore, Maryland – Things To Do and See
posted by FindAirlineCards.comWhether you’re visited Baltimore, Maryland in the past or you plan on taking a trip in the very near future, you probably don’t know what’s worth seeing and what’s not. Baltimore is a decent sized city and while there are a tons of things to do, I narrowed it down to my three favorites. All three attractions have something for everyone whether you’re travelling with family or even by yourself.
If you’re a baseball fan, catching a game at Camden Yards is a must. Built in 1992, Camden Yards is minutes away from downtown and from attractions like Babe Ruth’s birthplace. Even if you’re not a baseball fan, it’s a fun place to take the family just to see the attractions, the field, and the places you can eat. Tickets are relatively cheap if you sit in the outfield. If you can, try and buy your tickets from the box office the day of the game to avoid any necessary Ticketmaster fees.
Fort McHenry National Monument
If you’re a fan of history or like state parks, many travellers have noted that the Fort McHenry Monument is one of the best attractions in Baltimore. Getting on the park grounds is free but if you’d like to attend the monument, it’s going to cost extra. At the monument, you’ll be able to learn information from wars such as the Civil, War of 1812, the world wars, and many other historical events. Even if you’re not a history buff, the grounds are well worth checking out!
If you’re a fan of history, especially Maryland history, you may want to take a trip to the Historical Society. The Maryland Historical Society features of 200,000 items that have a story behind them. From local history to worldwide history, the society is a great place to spend a lazy afternoon or to beat the cold or heat.
Baltimore, Maryland has a ton of attractions and these three don’t even serve justice. It’s almost next to impossible to spend a weekend and see all of the city. From art musuems to parks, the city really does have it all!
