North Korea 2015

 
 

It is said that North Korea is the least known and the least understood country in the world.  Although unofficially referred to as ‘the Hermit Kingdom’ because of its extreme isolation, North Korea’s official name is the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.

This was my 9th trip to North Korea, and it came 10 years after my first.  For this trip, I was leading a group of 12 people on a study tour on behalf of the Geographical Society of New South Wales.

This diary contains some observations and photos from this in September 2015.
