29 days in Annapolis Itinerary

Capital of the United States for one year from 1783 to 1784, Annapolis has played a vital role in U.S. history.

Take a break from the city and head to Lums Pond State Park and Flag Ponds Nature Park. Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Maryland World War II Memorial and Hammond-Harwood House. Venture out of the city with trips to Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad National Historical Park (in Church Creek), Martinak State Park (in Denton) and Jefferson Patterson Park & Museum (in Saint Leonard). The adventure continues: snap pictures at Chesapeake Bay Bridge, enjoy the sea views from Thomas Point Shoal Lighthouse, learn about winemaking at Great Frogs Winery, and contemplate in the serene atmosphere at St. Anne's Church.
