[2025 Seoul ] Travel Guide for DMZ Train (Updated May)

#aprilblooms Soulful Seoul Visiting DMZ from Seoul- Here we see the Mangbaedan Memorial Altar, built to pay respect to the displaced people who died yearning for their family and hometown in North Korea. People offer prayers and light incenses for those who have passed. Another solemn site here that one should respect. We also visit the UNESCO Memory of the World monument built in 1983 and The Peace Bell inside the colorful Korean structure, built on January 1, 2000. 🇰🇷Imjingak Park DMZ South Korea #xmastrip #myhiddengems #summervacation #freehotelstay #familytrip #localguides #manila #historicallandmarks #mytravelhacks #passionpassport #awesomepic #urbanexplorer #asia #foodie #asiatrip #mustdo #food #trip #travel #naturalwonders #couplestrip #thingstodo #seoul #hongkong #springwander #southkorea

If you're looking to have a lot of fun at the DMZ Tour, you won't! But if you enjoy history, learning in-depth about the Korean War, with some sightseeing, then this tour is definitely for you! But sorry to break it to you, Hyun Bin won't be there with his wide arms open as per Crash Landing On You 🤣 Our tour went as below: Imjingak Peace Park > Freedom Bridge > Dora Observatory > 3rd Infiltration Tunnel Highlights: Imjingak Peace Park - The steam locomotive was one of the main highlights for us. It was one of the remnants of the Korean War and you could clearly see how worn out it was with all the bullet holes. Dora Observatory - We were able to see North Korea through the binoculars at the observatory. It was surreal seeing the stark difference between South and North Korea. We also saw some buildings in ruin and was told by the tourguide that those buildings were recently bombed by the North Korean military. TIPS to enjoy the DMZ Tour: 1) Dress appropriately and comfortably! Please don't wear sandals or heels, walking in the 3rd Infiltration Tunnel will wear you out! 2) Please be at your hotel lobby early. There are chances that your tour may be cancelled because they only accept a few tour bus everyday. If you're late, you may cause everyone to miss out! 3) Security checkpoint is strict so be sure to provide your passport when asked for. Rating (out of 5): ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #seoul

Definitely worth the trip!
