North Korea – A Tourists Paradise

Pyongyang, DPRK (North Korea). February 2010
Pyongyang, North Korea

I don’t know why, but North Korea has a certain fascination for me.  Maybe it is the morbid curiosity, or the allure of the forbidden or maybe the sheer element of wanting to see the unknown.  I have no idea.  The link here* is from Time magazine and consists of photos taken by Chinese tourists on a cruise along the North Korean coast.  Pictures are so rare of this country that it is almost an event when they are released.
