1. We walk through the 2nd Infiltration Tunnel, covering a distance of about 500 meters underground in the DMZ, up to a point 300 meters from the Military Demarcation Line. Inside the tunnel, you can see white circles marking the holes where North Korea placed dynamite to excavate the tunnel.

2. From the Cheorwon Peace Observatory, you can see the DMZ and North Korean territory. Unlike other observatories, here you can also see the actual deployment of military bases, including general outposts, guard posts and iron fences on both sides. Unlike commercialised, tourist-oriented DMZ sites, Cheorwon offers a realistic view of the DMZ.

3. From 15 August 1945, when Korea was liberated from Japan, until 25 June 1950, when the Korean War broke out, Cheorwon was under North Korean control. The headquarters served as the central office of the Gangwon Provincial Party, which ruled the area at the time. It was also the political, social and cultural heart of the region. Furthermore, the basement of this building was used to carry out investigations and torture of liberals and capitalists.

About Seoul

Königspaläste und Hanok-Dörfer stehen zwischen Glastürmen, belebten Märkten und nächtlichen Essensstraßen in Seoul, Südkoreas Hauptstadt.

Fünf große Paläste der Joseon-Dynastie zieren die Stadt, allen voran der Gyeongbokgung mit seiner farbenfrohen Wachablösung und der Changdeokgung, dessen Geheimer Garten eine ruhige Zuflucht ist. Dazwischen bewahrt das Hanok-Dorf Bukchon traditionelle Häuser mit Ziegeldächern an abschüssigen Gassen, und Insadong ist bekannt für Teehäuser, Galerien und Kunsthandwerk.
