Baltimore is the largest city, but not the capital of the state of Maryland, and lies on the Patapsco River, at the point where it flows into the northwestern fork of the Chesapeake Bay on the East coast of the United States of America.
Known as Charm City by the locals, Baltimore prides itself on a cultural wealth that has given the city an international profile as a place where your highbrow side can be best entertained. With its many attractions such as museums, art galleries, and of course, the famous Baltimore Symphony Orchestra, who play concerts almost every day; not to mention an exquisite dining scene centred on the many restaurants around the Harborplace district, where a huge variety of cuisines are on offer, and are complemented by many different wine bars, with many night clubs also situated nearby. With a varied cultural programme that runs year round, a visit to Baltimore is a chance to be educated and enriched as well as to be entertained.
Within easy striking distance of the attractions of Washington, and certainly a good counterpoint to New York's insane bustle, adding Baltimore onto your itinerary touring the Eastern United States is well worthwhile, and rewarding.
You can get cheap flights and accommodation in Baltimore throughout the year, and the city's reputation for hospitality means that no matter when you visit, you'll get a warm welcome, even if the weather is bad.
