The story of our nation unfolds here in the Northern Region of Maryland. In this land of pioneers, soldiers and heroes, just let yourself be transported back in time. If you listen carefully, you can almost hear the sounds of wagons and stagecoaches, battle cries and victory yells. Today, world-class wines are produced here, honoring a heritage that dates back over 300 years. This is a spiritual land, full of shrines and monuments, mansions and museums, waterfalls and wildlife preserves, antiques and boutiques. Whether you return to the past or take in a baseball game, Maryland’s Northern Region is a must see.
