Summer tour of DMZ


Ready for the tour!



Touristy photo 1


Tourist photo 2. That girl sees something out of the ordinary...
We did go inside the tunnel made by NK to invade SK even though it's a cease fire.
It was cold down there. Hard hats were a must.
Every few seconds you heard "clack" followed by "ouch".
Low ceilling.

Bottom right is ROK soldier.




The solider you see had binoculars. When our group came out he handed them to the man in the window to the left of him. There's a curtain so no one can see him.




Inside one of the blue freedom houses.

We are technically in North Korea now (non-gravel side).





With a RoK solider.
Tour guide said they stand in a Tae Kwon Do stance.
