A train which goes to Shineuiju, the northern end of the Korean Peninsula before the division between two Koreans is exhibited in Imjingak Park.
Mangbaedan is located to enable displaced people whose hometown was the North Korea to bow down to their parents or family in North Korea during the New Year’s Day and Chuseok.
3,800,000 Korean and foreign visitors Imjingak Park visit each year as the Peace Tourist Spot where people meditate on sorrow of the division between two Koreans and pray for the unification.
Freedom Bridge & Dokgae Bridge (a part of Freedom Bridge)
“New Lane Towards Peace” opened on Dokgae Bridge within Imjingang Pyeonghwa-Nuri Park. The old train tracks that connected South Korea and North Korea before the Korean War is used as a platform to display messages of hope and peace.
