Itinerary

  • The 2nd Tunnel

    45 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    Experience a piece of Korean history by visiting the Second Infiltration Tunnel in Cheorwon DMZ, a significant symbol of the past conflicts between North and South Korea. The tunnel, built by North Korea and discovered by South Korea in 1975, served as a secret invasion route for a possible attack on Seoul. It stretches over 3.5 kilometers, offering a stark reminder of the Korean War and the peninsula's division. As you descend into this damp, dimly lit tunnel, you'll be immersed in a deeply historical environment. A knowledgeable guide will share memorable stories about the harsh conditions endured by the North Korean workers who manually dug this tunnel, shedding light on their daily lives and steadfast determination.
