Frederick is a city in western Maryland with mountainous views and clustered spires. The city is popular for its intimidating 40-block historic district and Civil War sites. History buffs will enjoy the diverse history spots in the city, from the National Museum of Civil War Museum, which offers battlefield medical care exhibits, to the Schifferstadt Architectural Museum in a 1750s German colonial house. If you're traveling with children, you should visit the Rose Holl Manor Park & Museum, which includes a children's museum, the Adventure Park USA, offering fun rides, and the Gambrill State Park, which appeals to hikers. Art lovers can see virtual art exhibits at the Delaplaine Arts Center.
Downtown Frederick is an exciting spot in the city, as the entertainment district features a thriving craft beer scene, specialty stores, art galleries, and eateries. In the downtown area, you can check out Carroll Creek Park, which features fountains, footpaths, and an amphitheater where you enjoy performing arts. The Frederick Festival of the Arts is a mainstay in the city, but the Maryland Craft Beer Festival is another top reason to visit.

Baltimore
Baltimore is a seaport in Maryland best known for its crab cakes and baseball legend, Babe Ruth. As there is plenty to see in Charm City, you'll be singing "Good Morning, Baltimore'' as soon as you experience all of the sights and activities this quirky town has to offer.
Some of Baltimore's most impressive attractions are centered in and around Inner Harbor. This scenic waterfront is filled with historic ships, dating as far back as the Civil War in the case of the USS Constellation. Alongside shops and restaurants, Inner Harbor also hosts the National Aquarium, the Maryland Science Center, and several entertainment venues where you can catch live music. Enjoy a bird's-eye view of the harbor from atop Federal Hill Park, or if you prefer the view that inspired "The Star Spangled Banner," head out to Fort McHenry, known for its role in the War of 1812.
Baltimore is one of the stops on Wanderu's recommended East Coast wine tour, but don't worry about racking up a hefty tab; luckily, Baltimore is also one of the cheapest drinking cities in the U.S., with the cheapest bottle of beer going for just $1.42. Enjoy your wine or beer along the Avenue in Hampden, a neighborhood known for its hipster bars, restaurants, and boutiques.
