Opened in 1992, this baseball stadium incorporates the old Baltimore & Ohio RR Warehouse building into its asymmetrical design. The home plate and right field foul pole came from the old Memorial Stadium, former home of the O's. Ninety-minute tours are given on weekday mornings, if there isn't an afternoon game. See the dugout, press box and field. Tickets to O's games can be tough to come by, but there is a scalp-free zone at the stadium where fans can buy tickets for face value or less.

Eating on the move acquires a different meaning when you board any of the yachts of the Harbor Cruises. Grab a few bites as Prince Charming, Bay Lady and Lady Baltimore welcome you aboard. The rates are reasonable, the food is splendid and you're encouraged to drink - after all that's a sea farer's prerogative! Special events are planned all throughout the year. For instance, you can charm your better half aboard the Bay Lady or the Lady Baltimore on a Valentine Dinner Cruise in February. You can simply walk in with a friend during the non-peak days. However, it is recommended that you book in advance if you're arriving with a large group during summer. You can do a group booking or a private charter booking, preferably reserving a few months in advance for special days.

Among the most popular recent exhibits were three-dimensional nebula models and a giant meteor hanging from the ceiling of the main hall. Of more local interest is the Chesapeake Bay estuary exhibit, which features several tanks of live creatures. Packages that include tickets to the IMAX are available.

Since 1845, this market has been a vital part of the Federal Hill community. The present structure, built in 1952, is home to 28 vendors, selling everything from cheese to tobacco, and donuts to health foods.

For those who enjoy raw clams and oysters, the raw bar here simply can't be beat for freshness or atmosphere.

This pristine park offers spectacular views of the Inner Harbor and a wonderful, fenced-in play area for the kids, complete with slides, a sandbox and monkey bars. Dogs are also welcome. While you're visiting the park, take a moment to learn about one of Baltimore's most prominent citizens. A monument details the life of Major General Samuel Smith, who helped defeat the British attack on Baltimore during the War of 1812. He went on to become a Congressman, then president of the Senate and, finally, mayor of Baltimore.

'Visionary' is a term used to describe art that is created by people who use ordinary media to express their own intensely personal ideas about life. This museum has assembled a wonderful collection of this very Visionary art. Since Visionary artists generally lack formal training, and work outside of established art traditions, their works are as bold, innovative and inspirational as the visions that spawned them. Admission: USD11 Adults, USD7 Students and seniors, USD6 per person for groups of ten or more. Children under four years of age and under are free.
