It is really hard to take photos there, it's almost forbidden in every single interesting place... Indeed, one photo camera pointed on North Korean border could be represented as a weapon, and the South Korean part doesn't want to give the enemy confidential informations as well. Moreover, the time allocated to the visit of each place was short. The journalists are forbidden there, except if they get a special admission right. By the way, one South Korean came to me and asked me if I belonged to the journalist staff... Anyway, I took some photos when I could... The most exciting moment was the JSA, the jointure point between two Korea, indeed, after I entered in a conference room, I enjoyed staying some precious minutes on the other side of the border : North Korea!

North Korean border
I experienced something exciting : going to the North Korean border with South Korea by a snowing day, two days after the announcement of the North Korea's dictator death Kim Jong-il and the enhancement of South Korean's and American's army alertness.

Pajung-sa by night
Some other shots from pajung-sa. One during the sunset and the other just before the night. Still three weeks left to enjoy the city's lights, the N tower and let's hope the snow.
