The Inner Harbor
Baltimore's Inner Harbor is the centerpiece of downtown. It's a lively area with restaurants and museums, shops, and ships. Visit the USS Constellation, the last Civil War vessel afloat, the National Aquarium, featuring more than 16,500 animals in exhibits designed to replicate natural environments, the Maryland Science Center, with interactive exhibits combined with the state-of-the-art Davis Planetarium and an IMAX Theater. You can rent a sailboat or paddleboat or stroll along the waterfront.
