Baltimore gets a lot of hate on here. It's not really that bad
As much I love being from NY, sometimes I need a vacation. Being around that density gives out claustrophobic vibes.
East Baltimore and West Baltimore are bullet playgrounds. Stay away from there. The best parts of Baltimore are Charles Village, Hampden, Fells Point, Inner Harbor, Mount Vernon, Federal Hill etc.
The further you get into Baltimore county, you'll find a lot of hidden gems and nature such as these
Lake Roland. It's nearby Towson.
Gwynn Falls
Horseshoe Falls
Jones Falls
Idk bro I just really like adventures!
