I wonder that it's possible to travel North Korea? Have you been there as a normal tourist? Anyway, nice pictures to get a 'snapshot' about that country.
it's no probelm to get a visum there. but you are not allowed to travel by yourself, you'll have 2 minders with you all the time (i mean all the time). and the schedule is made up before. you'll only see what they want you to see. you're not free to walk by yourself or take photos of what you want etc. But still, it was really interesting and fascinating.
Patrik,
What made U pick North Korea? I find that country very interesting only because they are ultra secretive. They recently had a documentary on US TV about a gentleman who traveled there with a hidden camera. Each time he left his hotel room it was searched. They have forced farmers to stop growing food & force them to grow opium to support the military. When U fly over at night that country is almost total darkness. Very scary but I would have loved to go. Thanks for sharing the photos.

Thanks for sharing, amazing pictures. Sounds like my trip to Cuba in 1999 ("you see only what they want you to see"..)...but still..
