1. Federal Hill

 

Federal hill

Baltimore, United States

Baltimore’s historic neighborhood is not only gorgeous with its old churches, cobblestones and polished houses, but it’s also arguably the best place to jog in town. The uphill steers will make your quads burn and downhill will get those endorphins going like no other. Take a break at a park among lush trees or pop into one of the Irish bars for a cold beverage. #history

 

2. Patterson Park

 

Patterson Park

Baltimore, United States

Cool park on top of a hill, overlooking the city. The pagoda gives the regular scenery an exotic kick. You can go up the steps on to its top on Sunday. Benches and running paths everywhere. #hiking

 

3. On the Hill Cafe

A very tiny garden up in federal hill, close to the inner harbor. Very quaint little corner of the old area, nice for photos and to hang out in complete quiet #park

 

6. B & O Railroad Museum

 

B & O Railroad Museum

Baltimore, United States

Before you go all “Dee, this is too nerdy, I don’t wanna go to a museum!” Let me say this: life size trains. LIFE SIZE, people. Feel like a little kid running around the museum (I was looking for Thomas the Tank Engine, ha) and see if they let you get inside ;) Definittly go play with the choo-choo train model outside. Ah, simple pleasures #statue #history #kidslearning

 

7. Mum’s

 

Mums

Baltimore, United States

Mum’s is Federal Hill’s ultimate hole in the wall-dive bar. Pop in for their #1 special ($5.75 shot of evil and a can of Natty Boh) or swing by and watch the game with the gang. Go Oreoles! #pub #cheap-eats

 

8. Fell’s Point

Take the water taxi over from the Inner harbor and venture out to Fell’s Point. Historic meets hip here and there’s something for everyone. Come listen to live music, shop or go on a ghost tour. #free #history #open-late #fine-dining #cheap-eats #coffee
