Baltimore & Washington D.C.?

Question

Hello All!

I am from Hong Kong and is going to attend a conference held a the inner harbour area in Baltimore from 17 Oct to 20 Oct. I am planning to stay over from 21 Oct to 22 Oct to visit the D.C. I have a few questions and hopefully someone can give me kind suggestions:

(1) The best way to get from BWI to Inner harbour
(2) Fine dining at Inner Harbour
(3) Anywhere worth visiting for limited time in Baltimore (I am probably ok after 5pm everyday)
(4) Is there a subway system in Balitmore? Anywhere can I get a map or something?
(5) Best way from the Inner Harbour to D.C.
(6) Not-to-be-miss for a guy with just 48 hrs at D.C.

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

I'm from Baltimore and can tell you that the Harbor is beautiful. However, getting to DC isn't too hard..... The hotel you'll be staying at should be able to provide you with all the traveling information you'll need.

Answer 2

I absolutely LOVE the Inner Harbor in Baltimore. Here are 2 links for you to peruse. I enjoy going to the aquarium and they should have discounts for after 5pm!

There's so much to do and so many restaurants, I would go to the Harbor's site and just research all they have to offer to decide on one. It depends on what type of food you want.

DC is great, too. There's so much to see and do. The Smithsonian museums are there...lots of nightlife, too. Here's another great site for DC.
