The City is a frequent destination for travellers visiting North Korea and a pitstop on the way to the Demilitarized Zone, which is located 10 minutes away. Travellers here will have lunch either before or after visiting the DMZ and will likely pay a visit to the Koryo Museum, a UNESCO approved world heritage site.
