Capital: Pyongyang

Language: Korean

The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea is still one of the few white spots on the map of international tourism. Awaiting the visitor is a country that proudly looks back on 5000 years of history. In enchanting landscapes, which are mainly characterized by bizarre mountains, picturesque valleys and rectangular rice paddies, there are scattered art-historically interesting royal tombs, pagodas and temples, which have been restored in an exemplary manner. Due to the short distances, well-developed highways and low traffic, the main sights can be easily reached. The starting and ending point of each tour is the monumental capital Pyongyang, where modern socialist Korea presents itself. Since there is no mass tourism, the visitor is still received everywhere by friendly people who are warmly eager to welcome the foreign guest.
