Highlights
  • DMZ - Imjingak Park

A sign at Imjingak Park showing the distance to Seoul is 53 km, while Kaesong is just 22 km away.

Located roughly 56 km from Seoul City Hall and only 7 km from the demarcation line between North and South Korea, Imjingak Park is an important area within Korean history.

It was initially built back in 1972 to console those from both sides of the divide who can no longer return to their hometown, friends, and families.

The park itself also contains an array of statues and monuments about the Korean War, as well as a 3-story observation deck, pond in the shape of the Korean Peninsula, North Korea centre, and even a small amusement park.

Additional Information

What is the DMZ – an exciting experience like no other

While the Cold War happened a long time ago, Korea is the only country that still remains divided as a consequence. The DMZ lies on the border between the North and the South. This is the most heavily fortified border in the whole world, so don’t miss the chance to see it!

OPTIONAL : Gondonla

Gondola tour is one of our most popular DMZ tours and can also be an excellent alternative to our DMZ Tour when political or military events restrict access to some of the stops on those tours.

OPTIONAL : Red Suspension Bridge

The Gamaksan Red Suspension Bridge is the longest suspension bridge in Korea at 220m long and 1.5m wide. It can hold up to 900 adults and is constructed to withstand 30 meters per second winds and earthquakes of up to 7 magnitude. Its stunning scenic views make it the perfect spot to capture beautiful photos, and it is always well-received.

Our number 1 must-do in Seoul. - Our tour to the DMZ has been fantastic. We've visited the memorial park, the 3rd tunnel, the DMZ village and the observatory. We've also tried delicious DMZ local food. The tour is perfectly organized, always on time, and very interesting. I must thank our guide, Crystal, for being so attentive and nice with all of us. Her explanations are also very complete and clear. The tour is fully in English. If you speak English and you're coming to Seoul, don't miss this great tour!
