We apologize for any inconvenience.— What You Can Expect —DMZ (Demilitarized Zone)Since the signing of the armistice agreement at Panmunjom in 1953, the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) has been one of the world's most closely watched borders. According to the ceasefire agreement, the Joint Security Area at Panmunjom, where the two Koreas face each other across a line that is less than 800 meters long, is jointly guarded by UN forces and North Korean troops. Due to its uniqueness, tourists must carry passports for entry, providing a profound experience of the tense relations between North and South Korea.Imjingak ParkConstructed in 1972 as a security tourism destination, Imjingak Park is located 7 kilometers south of the military demarcation line. It consists of one underground and three above-ground levels, featuring the North Korean Museum, the Unification Park, and various monuments. Outside Imjingak, 12 types of military equipment used during the Korean War are displayed, including tanks and aircraft. Among them, the "Bridge of Peace" collects items from battlefields around the world, documenting war-related content to remind people not to forget the sacrifices made in war.Third TunnelLocated just 52 kilometers from Seoul, the Third Tunnel, like the First and Second Tunnels, is evidence of North Korea's intentions to invade the South. In 1974, based on intelligence from Mr. Kim Fu-cheng, a defector from North Korea, South Korea began drilling operations in the Cheorwon area. The Third Tunnel was the third tunnel discovered by South Korea's investigation, and it is more threatening than the previous two as it is closer to the city center.Dorasan ObservatoryDorasan Observatory is the northernmost observatory in the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone). The inscription "End of Division, Beginning of Unification" symbolizes the belief that one day North and South Korea will be unified. From here, you can also use telescopes to observe the bronze statue of Kim Il-sung in Kaesong, Mount Songak, and the daily lives of rural residents.Tongil ChonTongil Chon, meaning Unification Village, established in 1973, is a small village located within the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) that cannot be found on maps. In this unique village, there is also an opportunity to purchase local DMZ goods in the DMZ.Geonaksan Suspension BridgeThe Geonaksan Suspension Bridge spans 150 meters and was once the site of fierce battles during the Korean War. The bridge is dedicated to the 1,000 British soldiers who fell in the 1951 battle. After a 10-15 minute uphill walk, you can enjoy beautiful scenery along with the suspension bridge, and about 250 meters from the bridge, there is a small waterfall. Visitors can appreciate the natural beauty of South Korea here.— Package Introduction —DMZ Half-Day Tour (excluding lunch)Itinerary: Imjingak Park, Third Tunnel, Dorasan Observatory, Tongil ChonDMZ Half-Day Tour + Seoul City Tour Itinerary: Imjingak Park, Third Tunnel, Dorasan Observatory, Tongil Chon, Lunch - Korean Bibimbap, Gyeongbokgung Palace, Insa-dong **Gyeongbokgung Palace is closed every Tuesday and will be replaced with Jondeokjeong Palace.DMZ Day Tour (excluding lunch)Tour Itinerary: Geonaksan Suspension Bridge, Imjingak Park, Dorasan Observatory, Third Tunnel, Tongil Chon.
