DMZ
Korea is the only divided country in the world. After the Korean War(June 25, 1950), South Korea and North Korea negotiated and designated DMZ, demilitarized zone, 2km away from the truce line on each side of the border. As one of the last relics of the Cold War, DMZ attracts a great deal of public interest. DMZ have been created to quench people's curiosity on this unique area where tension and peace coincide.


Imjingak
Imjingak was built in 1972 with the hope for unification. It is surrounded by several Monuments, Unification Park and North Korea Center. Over 400 kinds of photos and documents showing the stark reality of North Korea are displayed in the North Korea Center of Unification Board. Also, there are 12 kinds of tanks and crafts on display that were used during the Korean Conflict.


The 3rd Infiltration Tunnel
The 3rd Tunnel, discovered on October 17, 1978, located 52km from Seoul. It is made by North Korean spies to invade South Korea and estimated that it took approximately an hour for 10,000 soldiers to move through the tunnel. When this tunnel was first discovered, North Koreans insisted it was made by South Koreans in a plot to invade North Korea. However, this theory proved eventually to be false



Dora observatory
From the Dora observatory, visitors can overlook North Korea and its various locations including Gaeseong, Songaksan, Kim Il-Sung Statue, and Cooperation Farm. It was first opened to the public in January 1987.



Dorasan Station
Dorasan Station is a railroad station situated on the Gyeongui Line, which once connected North and South Korea and has now been restored. For several years the northernmost stop on the line was Dorasan Station, which is served by Tonggeun commuter trains. On December 11, 2007, freight trains began traveling north past Dorasan Station into North Korea, taking materials to the Kaesong Industrial Region, and returning with finished goods
