A visit to The DMZ in
North Korea: DAMIRs Underground News Report and Photos.
The
Brief Summary: "I wanted to remind people that the division is not
only
two countries but the world. And visiting the DMZ; the view was
spectacular, and a real sightseeing adventure, looking into the past,
historically and hopefully looking into the future peacefully".
Category: Current Affairs: A visit to The DMZ in North Korea.
The DMZ (the demilitarized zone) above the 38th parallel between
North Korea and South Korea. The DMZ stretches across the Korean
Peninsula from East to West (155 miles).
Throughout the visit, we are constantly reminded not to take photos,
and only at selected security stripped yellow line areas, photos are
forbidden while in the tunnel. Heavy security is present.
The DMZ is a hot spot now cause of the CNN coverage of the present
news on the North Korean nuclear threat, and US relations with North
Korea's leaders. Surely the DMZ has historical significance and is
one of the many tourist attractions.
Being at the DMZ, and walking over the Freedom Bridge is a moment
I will never forget, writing, the whole world should be one
Looking into the future peacefully.
