Review:

Gaithersburg is one of Montgomery County's most charming cities, home to major companies such as the National Institute of Standards and Technology, Lockheed Martin Information Systems, and IBM.

Its unique eastern central business district, known as Olde Towne, is home to lovely historic buildings, while its western sections are home to wealthy neighborhoods designed according to New Urbanism principles.

Visitors can splash and play at the Water Park at Bohrer Park throughout the summer months, or taste delicious farm brews at the Elder Pine Brewing and Blending Company's public taphouse.

The Washingtonian Center, commonly known as Rio, is one of Maryland's top shopping districts, known as a popular Black Friday shopping destination.

Nearby in Germantown, visitors can pick their own strawberries at Butler's Orchard, shop at the Lancaster County Dutch Market, or enjoy indoor and outdoor recreational opportunities at the Maryland SoccerPlex and Discovery Sports Center.
