What are the best things to do in Baltimore?

I live in Washington, D.C., but I’m in dire need of some new scenery. A few of my coworkers said that Baltimore is worth the trip, but they didn’t give me any suggestions. What are some of the best things to do in Baltimore?

The hustle and bustle is just par for the course when you live in
Washington, D.C.
, so a change of scenery is always a smart idea to shake off the doldrums and blues. Thankfully, Baltimore is just a short drive or train ride away and provides a distinctly different experience. Here are some of the best things to do in Baltimore:
  • Visit Edgar Allan Poe’s grave. Although his life was cut short by syphilis, his works live on. Going to his grave seems just like what he’d want considering the subject material of his writings.
  • Get some blue crabs. April through November is blue crab season in Maryland, giving you the opportunity to savor one of the city’s most famous foods.
  • Go to Babe Ruth’s boyhood home. Located right next to Camden Yards, the home of the Baltimore Orioles, this museum shines a bit of light on the youth of one of baseball’s greatest players and icons.
Although the drive from D.C. to Baltimore is only about an hour long, having the right car insurance coverage is a smart move. Use the
