The largest city in Maryland, Baltimore is known for being a seaside city.
Maryland, constituent state of the United States of America. One of the original 13 states, it
lies at the centre of the Eastern Seaboard, amid the great commercial and population complex
that stretches from Maine to Virginia. Its small size belies the great diversity of its landscapes
and of the ways of life that they foster, from the low-lying and water-oriented Eastern Shore
and Chesapeake Bay area, through the metropolitan hurly-burly of Baltimore, its largest city,
to the forested Appalachian foothills and mountains of its western reaches.

countless music venues, theaters and galleries within its bounds, but from the ample support
and resources it provides to its resident makers. Together, these factors make Bromo the
perfect place to immerse yourself in Baltimore’s art scene. Start your tour of Bromo with a
hearty breakfast from the historic Lexington Market, and end it with a show at the Hippodrome
or Everyman Theatre.
Canton & Brewers Hill. The heart of this waterfront neighborhood is a quaint village square
rimmed with restaurants, pubs and shops along O’Donnell Street. But wander off the square
to the surrounding blocks and find the quintessential Baltimore, from the nearly-lost Baltimore
art form of the painted screen to rows of classic marble stoops on traditional Baltimore brick
and Formstone row houses. Canton Waterfront Park is a hot spot for events like WTMD’s First
Thursdays, an outdoor summer concert series, and the annual Baltimore Seafood Festival.
Druid Hill Park. The Rawlings Conservatory. Dating back to 1860, Druid Hill Park is a 745-
acre urban oasis located in the heart of Baltimore. Today, it’s home to several attractions
including a public pool, disc golf courses, tennis courts, The Maryland Zoo and the Howard

guided walking and biking tours, night hikes, live entertainment and outdoor fitness classes.
