POLITICAL ATTRACTIONS

North Korea’s political attractions offer visitors a chance to delve into the country’s unique history and ideology. One of the most significant sites is the Kumsusan Palace of the Sun, the mausoleum where the bodies of Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il lie in state, attracting those interested in the country’s leadership. Another major political landmark is the Mansudae Grand Monument, where massive statues of the country’s leaders stand as symbols of their legacy. The Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) provides a stark reminder of the ongoing division between North and South Korea, offering a rare glimpse into the tension at the border. The Arch of Triumph in Pyongyang commemorates the Korean resistance against Japan, while Kim Il-sung Square serves as a focal point for major political events and parades. These sites give travelers a deeper understanding of the political landscape and the country’s leadership.
