A glimpse of North Korea from China

Dandong, Liaoning is the main border crossing between China and North Korea. A popular attraction is the broken bridge, bombed on the Korean side by the United States during the Korean War. You can walk to the end of what's left and gaze across to Sinujiu in the Hermit Kingdom. A river cruise is another way to get a good view of the Korean side. Dandong was also the end of the Great Wall of China during the Ming Dynasty. The heavily restored wall is another excellent place to look into Korea, as it's close to the modern border. Though the border is currently closed due to Covid, organized tours of North Korea ordinarily leave from Dandong, including day tours of Sinujiu and train journeys to Pyongyang. #LeaveYourMark #urbanexplorer #LightTheCity #Dandong #Liaoning #China #Korea #NorthKorea #GreatWall #GreatWallofChina #bridge
