Discover Shopping, Dining, Music, History & More in Downtown Annapolis!

Welcome to Annapolis! Founded in 1649, Annapolis is a delightful historic city.

Walk along the old brick sidewalks much as George Washington or Thomas Jefferson did in the days when Annapolis was the capital of the United States. Architecturally, Annapolis boasts some of the finest 17th and 18th century buildings in the country - including the residences of all four Maryland signers of the Declaration of Independence.

Annapolis is the home of the United States Naval Academy, founded in 1845, and of St. John's College, the third oldest institution of higher learning in the United States.

Stroll along our waterfront and enjoy the charm of our City Dock. Watch the boats as they cruise our famous Ego Alley. Sit on the seawall and watch the sailboat races as they return to the harbor and see why Annapolis is "Americas Sailing Capital."

Enjoy the many friendly and unique shops, restaurants, activities and scenery that downtown Annapolis has to offer.

Whether you are coming from Baltimore, Washington, DC, or flying into the area, here are driving directions to Annapolis.
