Maryland Travel OverviewMaryland is a state on the eastern seaboard; bordered by Virginia; West Virginia; Pennsylvania; and Delaware. Originally founded by Virginians growing tobacco along the tidal rivers in the south; the King of England granted the land to Lord Baltimore. He then established a colony which was tolerant to Catholics. Maryland has changed a lot over the years; with the big city of Baltimore both growing and declining to create an eclectic mix of people. Annapolis has retained its charm of a colonial port city where locals enjoy the picturesque Chesapeake Bay. Crabs; particularly soft-shell crabs; are synonmyous with Maryland and much of the local cuisine incorporates seafood from the bay. More recently; the area around D.C. has overgrown itself into a suburban nightmare of gridlock; while western Maryland still looks much the same as it did several hundred years ago.
