    [photo, Hancock's Resolution, 2795 Bayside Beach Road, Pasadena (Anne Arundel County), Maryland] Maryland's long, rich past is accessible through the State's many museums. Some specialize in art, history, and culture or focus on the Chesapeake Bay, a dominant feature of Maryland life and landscape. Others highlight industry, technology, or science.

    Besides its traditional museums, the State has museums of living-history, such as Historic St. Mary's City, and museums with hands-on exhibits. Many historic houses, gardens, and buildings are open to the public year-round or seasonally.

    In Baltimore, the Baltimore Museum of Art, the Maryland Science Center, the National Aquarium, and the Walters Art Museum host hundreds of school children every year and provide stimulating and fun excursions for families.
