Kaeseong City, North Korea
Bakyeon waterfall
Gwaneumsa Temple
Reality bites
Photo regulations are ridiculous
Namdaemun Gate
Gungyang Seowan
Seonjukyo Bridge
lunch Kaeseong-style
and rub the nose of a turtle for luck
Kim Jong-Il gold statue on a hill overlooking the city
Date: July 27th, North Koreans celebrate their dillusional victory over South Korea in the Korean War.
The city looks like a deserted movie set, empty, no traffic (no cars except for tour buses and a few for military officials).
Like Big Brother is watching: soldiers in uniform with guns stand like statues everywhere, in the city, in the farmland, in between the hills, the roads, the bridges, everywhere.
The 38th Parallel
a strange department store
I don't think there has been construction and new architecture since the war, except a few buildings in the Industrial Complex by the DMZ.
The wildlife, bumblebees and plants are thriving due to this lack of industry and development. The difference with Seoul is like night and day...
