not so much a place as an experience. After
close to 300 years of history, this city can deliver more
fun-fi lled days (and romantic evenings) to make any stay
memorable. Since the city‘s renaissance in the late 1970s,
millions of people have come to see Baltimore’s Inner Harbor,
where you can ride the elevator 27 stories to the Top of the
World observation level and museum in the World Trade
Center, explore the inside of the World War II submarine
Torsk and visit sharks, dolphins, sea turtles and thousands
of other aquatic animals at the National Aquarium in
Baltimore. If it’s retail therapy you are after then Baltimore
has an astounding array of choices from malls to antiques
and designer shops. Also, check out the city’s fantastic
restaurants, and lively Fell’s Point and Canton, where old
bars and pubs have been restored. Here you can sample
an astonishing array of tastes, along with world-famous
Chesapeake Bay cuisine – it doesn’t get any better than that!
