Welcome to Baltimore

It isn’t easy to sum up any place with just a few words, but that’s even more true for a city like Baltimore. It’s multifaceted, with so much personality and diversity that can’t be captured so simply. It’s such a special place that you really won’t get it until you visit. And when you do, you’ll leave with a whole new perspective. Baltimore is full of surprises, steeped in history (home of the birthplace of our national anthem!) and culture, from the gritty graffiti alley to the vast collections at our art museums. Plus one-of-a-kind events, an unexpected food scene and plenty of gorgeous views. Come see for yourself – you won’t get it til you get here.
