Baltimore, the largest city and cultural centre in the state of Maryland, is one of the largest sea ports in the mid-Atlantic United States. The harbour, which was once a major port of entry for immigrants coming to America, is now home to one of the major shopping and tourist attractions in the US: Harborplace. One of the exciting features that can be found there is the famous National Aquarium. Baltimore played a key role during the American Revolution, acting as the capital of the United States during that period. During the attack by the British in 1812, Francis Scott Key was famously inspired to write the lyrics for the American national anthem: The Star-Spangled Banner. Culturally, Baltimore is rich in history and architecture, and most visitors to the city are pleasantly surprised by the friendly people and maritime culture.
