Timeline
07:00
Grab a quick breakfast or snack at Lexington Market. As the world's oldest continuous public market, it is bustling in the morning. Check that you arrive before it closes at 17:00 on weekdays.
08:00
Walk to the Great Blacks in Wax museum. It opens at 9 AM on weekdays, so you will be there right as the doors open. This is the quietest time to see the life-sized figures without the midday crowds.
10:00
Head to Federal Hill Park for the view. The park overlooks the Inner Harbor and offers clear views of both the north and south skylines. It is a short walk from the museum area.
