Begins with a visit to Imjingak Park, you will be transferred to a shuttle bus to the DMZ and feel the tense atmosphere between the divided Koreas in this heavily controlled area. Next, head to the 3rd Tunnel, one of the infiltration tunnels built by North Korea in an attempt to invade the Seoul. It penetrates 1427 feet south of the Military Demarcation and is less than one hour from the city of Seoul. Continuously, take a chance to peek into reclusive North Korea by visiting Dora Observatory and Dorasan Station, which once used for freight trains to travel between the South and the North. After returning to Seoul, you will drop off at Myeongdong, one of the most popular shopping district located in the city center for you to shop till you drop or have delicious street food.
