Description

After meeting your guide, you will head to Imjingak Park. During the journey, you will hear engaging and informative stories about the Korean War. Imjingak Park, located 7 kilometers from the Military Demarcation Line, is a historically significant site related to the Korean War. Highlights of the park include the Mangbaedan Altar and the Bridge of Freedom. You will also have the opportunity to visit Dokgae Bridge, which was destroyed during the Korean War and later reconstructed. Next, you will explore the 3rd Infiltration Tunnel. This tunnel stretches 1,635 meters in length, measures 2 meters in width and height, and is located approximately 52 kilometers from Seoul. At Dora Observatory, you can enjoy panoramic views of North Korea and various key locations. On clear days, you may even catch a glimpse of North Korean residents going about their daily lives. After a short break at Imjingak, we will proceed to the Red Suspension Bridge, located in Mount Gamak. This area is also historically significant as the site of a heroic battle fought by British troops during the Korean War. The tour concludes with a drop-off at either City Hall Station or the Myeongdong area, depending on your preference. It is strongly recommended that individuals refrain from wearing flip-flops, slippers, or shoes with heels.
