3. Experience a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to visit a frontline Korean Army combat division dedicated to guarding the DMZ. After a thorough ID check, visitors are escorted directly by vehicle to the observation post, just 10 minutes away, accompanied by active-duty soldiers. Due to the strict verification process, we kindly ask that during your booking, you provide the exact name, date of birth, and nationality as they appear on each visitor’s passport for all participants.

4. [OPTIONAL] Discover a fascinating piece of Korean history right by the Han River. This old military camp was once where soldiers stood guard to prevent North Korean spies from entering via the river. After 2018, the military left, some of the fences were removed, and a popular bike path was established along the river. Today, the camp has been transformed into a museum that tells the stories of past military operations and showcases what life was like for soldiers. It’s a great way to learn about Korea’s history and see how the country protected itself in the past. If you're interested in history, adventure, or simply looking for a unique photo spot, this place is a must-visit. Explore Korea’s past and enjoy the beautiful riverside scenery!
