Discover Pyongyang, North Korea: A City of Modernity and Tradition.

【Explore】Pyongyang, North Korea 🚀🌏 A Unique and Mysterious Country 🔥 As someone from an inland city, I had the opportunity to visit the capital of the mysterious Korean Peninsula! This trip gave me many unforgettable memories 🎉🎈 Our journey mainly covered the following famous attractions: ⚠️Note⚠️ There are many places in North Korea where photography is prohibited, so there are very few photos in this article 😅😅😅 Please understand 🙏🙏🙏 🔸Kim Il-sung Square👑: One of the largest city squares in the world, surrounded by many important political and cultural buildings, including the famous Chollima Statue and Kim Il-sung University. Every morning, tens of thousands of citizens gather here for a flag-raising ceremony 🏆🐎 During this time, you can see many elderly people in traditional clothing, as well as children playing shuttlecock and dancing 🥳🥳🥳 🔹Mount Paektu Heaven Lake👵: We drove to the halfway point of Mount Paektu to admire the beautiful lake - Heaven Lake. It is a border lake between China and Japan, with crystal-clear waters 🐟🌊 There are also many beautiful mountains and waterfalls nearby 😍😍😍 Due to the low temperature, the sky presents a deep and mysterious blue beauty ❄️❄️❄️ Here, you can also find the legendary vacation spot of Kim Jong-il ⛰️🇰🇷 🔺Pyongyang Metro🚇: The metro stations here are the most unique I've ever seen 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Each station's interior is uniquely and magnificently decorated. The murals inside the stations depict scenes from the Monument to the People's Heroes and some traditional Korean dance scenes 📖🌟 You may even have the chance to see girls in traditional costumes performing folk songs and sword dances at the stations 🎤🤴🏼💕 🔻War Museum⌛: A memorial hall that records the brutal history of the Korean War. The museum houses a large collection of weapons and historical documents 📦💼 It also displays some real photos and videos from that time. Although these images are depressing 🙁 they are meant to help us better understand history and educate future generations 😔☮️ Remember to keep quiet and respect the deceased when visiting. This trip to North Korea allowed me to experience the country's customs and culture, while also increasing my understanding and knowledge of different cultures ✌️❤️ If you are an explorer curious about the world, why not join me on this unforgettable journey?
