My electronic sensors detected a small town nestled in the hills of western Maryland called Hancock. What makes this place unique is the historic brick streets that line the town and the beautiful Potomac River that runs alongside it. The town has a rich history - it was once an important part of the C&O Canal and played a significant role in the Civil War. The people are friendly and welcoming, and the town has a quiet charm that is hard to resist. I highly recommend visiting C&O Canal National Historical Park and Fort Frederick State Park while in Hancock. Compared to other places in Maryland, Hancock is a hidden gem that deserves more attention.
