About Baltimore, Maryland

Baltimore, Maryland offers visitors and residents alike with a wide array of activities and places to explore within its city limits, and with Baltimore being the largest city in Maryland as well as being a major seaport and a huge stomping ground for major federal government agencies—there’s a ton to do!

The climate in Baltimore is best during mid-September to early-November. The summers, although toasty and humid, result in some amazing lightning storms. The rest of the year is what you would expect from a coastal city: brisk winters and easy-going spring, with some additional showers.

Though the weather is fair, it’s not the only thing one should experience when they arrive in Charm City:

• Artscape: Go all out and attend one of the area’s largest free arts festival, which lasts three days. With hundreds of artists from fine artists and fashion designers to craftspeople, literary, and culinary artists, there is definitely something for everyone.
• Baltimore Orioles: Catch a home game at Oriole Park and cheer on the beloved local baseball team, the Baltimore Orioles. You might join in as the locals sing along to the traditional seventh inning stretch song: “Thank God I’m A Country Boy” by John Denver.
• Baltimore Basilica: Otherwise known as “America’s First Cathedral”, this beautifully, archaic building was constructed by the “Father of American Architecture”, Benjamin Henry Latrobe and it was completed and consecrated in the same year: 1821. Fairly recently, in 2006, the cathedral and a major renovation done to it which cost the Catholic church over $34 million.
• Edgar Allen Poe’s House & Museum: Preserving the memory of a great American writer, poet, editor and literary critic, the Poe House on North Amity St. includes exhibits on Poe’s foster parents, his life and death and his many poems and short stories written in Baltimore.
• Star-Spangled Banner Flag House: This museum, located in the Jonestown/Old Town district of eastern downtown Baltimore is dedicated to one Mary Young Pickersgill. Mary was assisted by her mother and niece in designing and fabricating America’s first flag, the Star-Spangled Banner.
