Imjingak Pyeonghoa-Nuri Park

Imjingak park is in a special area between North Korea and South Korea. It's for remembering the 10 million South Koreans who couldn't be with their families when the two countries were split. The park has statues and other things to see. It's next to the Imjin River, and it's as far north as South Koreans can go without restrictions. There's a tall building with three floors where you can see the river and even look into North Korea. The Freedom Bridge used to be a train bridge where soldiers were traded between North and South Korea. Mangbaedan Alter is a place where people from the North visit to remember their families. They bow towards their hometowns on special days. The park also has a wall with ribbons, shops where you can buy souvenirs, and a restaurant.

The Third Tunnel

The Third Tunnel is one of four tunnels found in the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) between North Korea and South Korea. It's more than 70 meters underground and 265 meters long. Many people visit it when they tour the DMZ. North Korea made this tunnel in the 1970s, but they denied it existed when South Korea found out. They first said it was a coal mine, but later it was revealed they built it to attack Seoul without warning. South Korea took control of the tunnel and blocked it off with concrete barriers. Nowadays, the Third Tunnel is a place tourists can visit. There's even a gift shop nearby. But it's still guarded, and you can't take photos inside. The tunnel is dark, narrow, and steep to walk through.

    Amazing tour of the DMZ. It was our first family trip to the DMZ and it was very interesting to see the view to North Korea. We especially liked the tunnel tour. Our guide was very informative about the history and about what to see. We would definitely use Seoul jolly tours again for our next visit to such a wonderful and amazing city.
