  The city of Wilmington in northeast Delaware lies just south of Pennsylvania, and just across the Delaware River from New Jersey. Wilmington's attractions include the Daniel S. Frawley Stadium, home to the Wilmington Blue Rocks professional baseball team, the Brandywine Zoo and the Concord Mall. Delaware doesn't impose a sales tax, making shopping and dining options in Wilmington especially attractive. Wilmington's waterfront restaurants allow visitors to experience river views while dining.
