(Demilitarized Zone) |
May 27, 2006. We joined
Adventure Korea for this trip to the DMZ.
(1) Symbol of people reuniting the Koreas.
(2) Our first tour stop was at the Third Infiltration
Tunnel. No cameras are allowed inside the tunnel so don't
be fooled by the looks of this entrance to the tunnel.
Let the hats tell you how it looks in the actual tunnel. |

(1) Next is the Dora Observatory. This place is on top of the
hill. On our way up here, the forest on both sides of the road
have knee-high fences and warning signs about mines. Creeped
me out.
(2) After attending the lecture, we went outside the hall for
a view of North Korea. Of course, the rain was also invited
so we couldn't see clearly. And, what's up with the "photo
line". |
 We
went to the Dorasan Train Station next. It is a train station...
just wanna be sure.
(1),(2) ImjinGak was next. We stopped here already in the beginning
of this trip but only to register. This time we had a chance
to walk around. |
 This
trip was a good experience. I definitely liked the Tunnel and
the Freedom Bridge (second photo). I would've love seeing a
clear view of North Korea but this day just had to remind me
of why I don't like rain. |
 I
was also expecting to see the JSA (Joint Security Area) but
as the itinerary stated, it's not included on this trip. I'm
just gonna have to take another tour. |
