Itinerary

Stop 1

Located at 7 km from the military Demarcation Line, the park has many statues and monuments about the Korean War. It was built in 1972 with the hope that someday unification will be possible and also to console those from both North and South who are unable to return to their families.

Stop 2

Freedom Bridge: The bridge was built for temporarily use, so there is not much significance in its architecture. However, the bridge got its name because South Koreans came back to South Korea through this bridge from North Korea after the signing of the Armistice Agreement.
