Towson is the country seat of Maryland’s Baltimore County. Though it is just 2 miles (3.2 kilometers) to the south of the big city, it is closer to pastoral areas. It offers a fascinating mix of urban-style and family-friendly outdoor adventure. It exudes a suburban feel mixed with a university town vibe that attracts visitors to its hot summers and cool winters. The area was once a Susquehannock settlement until it was transformed into farmlands in the 1700s by the Towson brothers. Towson town became popular as a Baltimore port for farmer’s produce and livestock. Hampton Mansion, which was built in 1790 as America’s largest private home, is now a historic site and popular town attraction.
