Activity itinerary

Imjingak Pyeonghoa-Nuri Park

  • 1h 30m
Located near the DMZ in Paju, Imjingak Peace Nuri Park symbolises Korea’s hope for reunification. The vast riverside park features the Freedom Bridge, remnants of the Korean War, and art installations made from barbed wire and peace messages. Visitors can stroll across green fields dotted with wind-powered sculptures and reflect on Korea’s divided past and aspirations for peace.

The Third Tunnel

  • 1h 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Discovered in 1978, the Third Infiltration Tunnel is a vivid reminder of Cold War tensions. Secretly dug by North Korea, the tunnel stretches more than 1.6 kilometres towards Seoul and could have allowed thousands of soldiers to pass through within an hour. Visitors can walk a portion of the tunnel wearing safety helmets and learn about its discovery at the DMZ Exhibition Hall, which highlights ongoing efforts towards peace and security.

Dora Observatory

  • 1h 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Situated on Mount Dora, the Dora Observatory offers a rare glimpse across the Demilitarised Zone (DMZ) into North Korea. From the viewing platform, you can see Kaesong City, North Korean propaganda villages, and the surrounding landscapes through high-powered binoculars. It’s one of the closest points where civilians can safely look into North Korea, providing a powerful perspective on the peninsula’s division.

Unification Village

  • 1h 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Unification Village is a small farming community located just south of the DMZ. Established to promote peace and coexistence, it’s known for its clean air, organic crops, and unique position within the civilian control zone. Visitors can taste local specialities like soya bean products and ginseng, shop for regional goods, and experience everyday life close to the border.

Paju

  • 1h
Enjoy a relaxing lunch stop in Paju, where you’ll have time to recharge and experience local Korean cuisine. Your guide will recommend popular dishes and assist with ordering, making it easy to try authentic flavours without any hassle.
