Itinerary
- The origins of the building are unclear, as records indicate that it was built in early 1946, prior to the establishment of the Workers' Party of North Korea (predecessor to the current Workers' Party of Korea).
- The 2nd Tunnel: The 2nd Tunnel, which was made by North Koreans to invade South Korea, was discovered on March 24, 1975. This tunnel is 3.5 kilometers long and sits 50~160 meters below the surface. It stretches out 1.1 kilometers and 2.4 kilometers in the south and north directions respectively. Only 500 meters is open for tourism among the whole length. Inside of the tunnel, there is a plaza to gather a large military force. The tunnel is divided into 3 exits. The use of this tunnel would allow for thirty thousand armed forces as well as tanks to pass through per hour. For now, the tunnel is operated as part of Cheorwon Security Tourism Course and many tourists visit this area every year.
- Cheorwon Peace Observatory: Peace observatory with three stories and a basement, opened in November 2007. The first floor is an exhibition hall and the second floor is an observatory, allowing tourists to observe the ecosystem, fortress of Gung-Ye Castle town, Pyeonggang tableland, and Seonjeon town of North Korea in the DMZ. There's also a miniature model produced by state-of-the-art technology and an ultra-precision telescope system, so that tourists can witness and listen to the reality of national division.
- Woljeongri Station: Woljeong-ri Station (Iron Triangle Battlefield) is the last stop before reaching the DMZ. With the sign "The iron horse wants to run again," there stand remains of a train that was used to make frequent trips to North Korea. Located at the spot where the fiercest battle was held during the Korean War, this train marks the partition line of the Korean peninsula. These days Woljeong-ri Station is under the control of the Cheorwon-gun Office and hundreds of thousands of people visit this unique tourist area every year.
- Hantangang Tour: The Sky Bridge, the renowned suspension bridge featured in the drama Crash Landing on You, and enjoy the breathtaking views of Hantangang Geopark.
- Bidulginang Waterfalls: Bidulginang Falls
The name "Bidulginang" comes from the Korean word “nang,” meaning “nest,” inspired by the hundreds of white doves that once nested in a cave behind the waterfall.
On September 26, 2012, the Cultural Heritage Administration designated the Pocheon Hantangang Basalt Gorge and Bidulginang Falls as Natural Monument No. 537.
Thanks to its stunning location and unique natural beauty, the falls have also appeared in popular historical K-dramas such as The Slave Hunters (Chuno), Queen Seondeok, and Warrior Baek Dong-soo.
