Overview of your Seoul tour:

Uncomfortable truth you will face about modern history of Korea: We Koreans are a homogeneous nation with the same language and ethnicity, culture, currently divided into two. The Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) is a border or buffer zone, which was drawn on July 27, 1953 when the Armistice Agreement was signed after the Korean War. The DMZ vividly captures the scars and wounds of the Korean War as well as the wishes and hopes for the reunification of two Koreas. DMZ covers the area from the origin of the Imjingang River in the east, to the town of Goseong in the west. On either side of the truce line is a 2km-wide stretch of land where military activity is forbidden. The zone has been protected from human disturbance for about 6 decades and has become a haven for wild animals. The destinations in this ecological area have been regaining popularity among eco-driven tourists.
