포토맥 강
The 포토맥 강 (Potomac River) is a major river in the eastern United States, flowing approximately 383 miles. It originates from the 애팔래치아 산맥 (Appalachian Mountains) in West Virginia and travels through 메릴랜드 (Maryland) and 버지니아 (Virginia) before emptying into the 체서피크 만 (Chesapeake Bay). The river serves as a natural boundary between Maryland and Virginia.
The Potomac River is significant for its historical and recreational value. It passes through the nation's capital, 워싱턴 D.C., where many iconic landmarks, including the 링컨 기념관 (Lincoln Memorial) and the 제퍼슨 기념관 (Jefferson Memorial), are located along its banks. The river is popular for activities like fishing, kayaking, and hiking along its scenic trails.
