Itinerary

1. The 2nd Tunnel was discovered on March 19, 1975, during a military operation. It is the second of four major underground tunnels constructed by North Korean forces that were designed to infiltrate South Korea. Inside, traces of TNT and cement walls built by North Korean soldiers remain, providing insight into the construction process at the time. The ceiling and walls bear evidence of explosive use, showing North Korea’s attempts to penetrate South Korea through underground bedrock.

2. This location serves as a military strategic point where visitors can directly view the DMZ and North Korean areas, including Pyonggang County. The first floor houses exhibits that highlight the tragedies of the Korean War.

   1.3 hAdmission included

3. The railway tracks in front of the station, which abruptly end, along with the bullet marks and rusted parts of the war-damaged locomotive, vividly convey the tragedies of that time. Woljeong-ri Station is not merely a ruin but has been reimagined as a symbol of hope for the reunification and peace of the Korean Peninsula.

   30 minAdmission included

4. Korean Workers' Party Headquarters: Built in 1946, this three-story building served as the administrative and political hub of the Cheorwon region under North Korean rule. Constructed in a communist architectural style, the building is now empty, but it still bears traces of the war, including bullet marks and crumbling exterior walls.

About Seoul

Royal palaces and hanok villages sit among glass towers, buzzing markets and late-night food streets in Seoul, South Korea's capital.

Five grand palaces from the Joseon dynasty grace the city, led by Gyeongbokgung, with its colourful changing of the guard, and Changdeokgung, whose Secret Garden is a serene escape. Between them, Bukchon Hanok Village preserves traditional tiled-roof houses on sloping lanes, and Insadong is known for tea houses, galleries and crafts.
