North Korea Concrete Wall

A must visit when in north korea.

North korea concrete wall.

North korea however began to propagate information about the wall after the fall of the berlin wall in 1989 when the symbolism of a wall unjustly dividing a people became more apparent. The typhoon hit the country s eastern coast typhoon. According to north korea between 1977 and 1979 the south korean and united states authorities constructed a concrete wall along the dmz. The wall that at first you might laugh at as just a wall has shaped in me a great respect for the north korean architects.

Footage on state broadcaster kctv earlier in the week showed bridges and concrete walls in kangwon province destroyed by high flood waters. A few weeks after the berlin wall started coming down in 1989 north korean leader kim il sung said in a new year s address that seoul had built a massive concrete wall to divide the two states. The wall was first made to fend off the south koreans and was then used as part of the treaty site and now it stands as an attraction for tourist who venture forth to the world. During a visit to north korea i was taken to view this seemingly undocumented wall.

The officer will explain the north korean point of view that a large wall standing between 5m and 8m high was built by south koreans aided and abetted of course by the united states from 1977 until 1979 across the entire dmz.
