Baltimore a Place for Fun and Food

Whether you're here on business travel, here to visit a friend, or just a relaxing vacation, there are plenty of sights to see. Here are a few suggestions of places you might want to visit on your stay in Baltimore.

Let's start with the National Aquarium of Baltimore. It's just a short stroll at the Inner Harbor and your there. The cost is a little pricey but it's definitely worth it. The museum has a dolphin show that's included in the price of your ticket, a coral reef, a rainforest, and an Australian exhibit and that's just the extras they also have the main museum exhibits. The aquarium also offers a café and gift shop.

If museums are your thing Baltimore also has a wonderful Science museum right in walking distance of the aquarium, they also have a great Art museum, The B&O railroad museum, the Edgar Allen Po museum, and the children's museum Port Discovery, and the Great Blacks in Wax Museum.

Do you want to find that perfect gift for someone you love? Well here in Baltimore shopping is one of our favorite pastimes so you can find all types of stores. At the Inner harbor pavilions there are shops from Yankee Candle, The Discovery Channel store, Christmas Shoppe, and a Sports fan shop where you can buy all your Ravens or Baltimore Orioles gear.

After a long day at the museums and shopping you might be hungry. Some restaurants in Baltimore I suggest are The Rusty Scupper for a fancy dining experience over the bay, or you can go to the Inner harbor pavilions and grab a bite to eat at any of those restaurants, they have a variety from Hooters to The Cheesecake Factory. If you're in for a water taxi ride over to Fells Point you could grab a bite at Crabby Dicks or even a burger and fries at Jimmy's. Or if you want a very nice sit down seafood dinner of even a seafood buffet you can get a wonderful dinner at Phillips at the Inner harbor pavilion.

I mentioned the water taxi earlier a great mode of transportation in the summer from the Inner harbor to Fells point and Fort McHenry. Discover history at Fort McHenry where the Star-Spangled Banner came to be. It's just a one time price deal and your stamped and you can go from the morning till midnight all you want, plus you get coupons you can use at different locations in Baltimore for food and gift items.

Another mode of transportation is the City buses, the light rail system and the subway. They also offer Duck Tours in Baltimore.

Are you a person of the night? Do you like to go out at night and dance the night away?
Baltimore has a great night life. Right around the corner from the Inner harbor is Power Plant Live. Well at Power Plant Live you can enjoy an array of clubs and bars, from Have a Nice Day Café to Bar Baltimore. Sometimes on summer nights Power Plant live also outdoor concerts. Other late night places you could check out are Hard Rock Café, ESPN Zone, and easily over 50 bars and night spots in Fells Point.

So whatever your heart desires you can have a great time in Baltimore and as the locals would say Have fun HUN!
