Imjingak Park

Imjingak, located 7 km from the Military Demarcation Line, is now at the forefront of tourism related to the Korean War. It was built in 1972 with the hope for the unification.

The Unification Bridge

The bridge is more like a symbolic one built back in 1998, wishing unification between South and North Korea. It was built by Hyundai Business Group of South Korea. The bridge is over a river named Imjingang, coming down from North Korea. The bridge has a nickname of “Cow Bridge”.

ID Check

Over the window, you can see soldiers wearing a green color camouflage uniform. They are South Korean soldiers currently serving their mandatory military service for 21 months. All men in South Korea have to serve the military mandatory for the period.

DMZ theater & Exhibition hall

It’s a unique museum within the civilian restricted zone. It was officially opened on 08, 14, 2009. The DMZ Showroom displays leaflets used during the 6.25 Korean Civil War, military letters, bayonets, empty cartridges, pottery found in DMZ, taxidermied birds and etc. DMZ Video Room features three-dimensional moving pictures. By watching them, you will get to understand how Korea was divided.

The 3rd Infiltration Tunnel

The highlight of the DMZ tour is to explore a tunnel dug by North Korea. Since 1974, South Army has discovered four tunnels crossing the MDL. The tunnels were made for military invasion toward South Korea. Each tunnel is large enough to enable the passage of thirty thousand soldiers in an hour. The 3rd tunnel was discovered in 1978 that penetrated into South Korea by 435 meters beyond the ceasefire line. You are going to hear how the tunnel was discovered with more detailed information.

Dora Observatory

Dora Observatory, or OP Dora is the northern most observation post just facing North Korea. From the observation platform, North Korean is within your eyesight, and so are the outskirts of Gaeseong City, the 3rd largest city of North Korea.

Dorasan Station

A sign in the station reads, “Not the last station from the South, But the first station toward the North.” For now, it is the northernmost station of South Korea which is only 700m, or a half mile away from the southern boundary of DMZ.

Driving Tour [NLL View]

The Northern Limit Line (NLL) is a disputed maritime demarcation line in the Yellow (West) Sea between the North and the South of Korea. This line of military control acts as de facto maritime boundary between the Koreas

Harry Smith & Family Tour of DMZ, Palaces, food and shopping with Mr. SP Hong - Mr SP Hong conducted a most fascinating and informative tour. He provided cultural and historical insights. He provided a much more detailed understanding to the history both economic and political aspects of Korea. I very much enjoyed his tour as did my wife and two children ages 17 and 29. I will always remember Mr SP Hong, his tour and hope to return one day in the not too distant future and take another of his tours. I told many co-workers, friends and family about his tour and recommend Mr SP Hong's tour to them.
