Great walking town

I agree, Denisa! Annapolis is a great city to just wander around and explore.

Must See Downs Park

Thanks for the recommendation Jo! I'm going to add Downs Park to my list of places to check out. Sounds very nice.

Oh My

I have to disagree with one of your choices.. Quiet Water park is nice BUT Downs Park in Pasadena has so much more! My boys love the playground, there is the Mother's Garden, The over look, The Pier, the aviary and not to mention the bay with a separate beach for doggies to play!!

Well worth a drive down Mountain RD!!

History Annapolis

With what I believe are more structures in everyday use form the 18th century than any other town in America, my favorite thing to do in Annapolis is just walk the streets. I have lived here 22 years and still enjoy just wandering around the old city on a nice or even not so nice day. The structures, the brick sidewalks and streets and even those of us who live here often find something new around the next turn.
Annapolis is a walking town and that is the best way to discover it. On your own or with one of the great Three Century Tours, it is a living breathing reminder of how things used to be in our one-time capitol.
