Photo essay: touristing the Demilitarized Zone, part II

 

David Guttenfelder knows what it is to see and appreciate small glimpses of North Korea. The images he's both taken and helped curate from others showcases life inside the DPRK like never before seen. 

His are the type of details that are clearly lost by simply looking out a pair of binoculars toward the horizon. Still, the pictures shown in this post, of North Korea as seen from the Demilitarized Zone looking out from South Korea, stand as embodiment of a heavily curated North Korean image--and speak to the interest of Koreans and foreigners alike to catch a glimpse of life on the other side. 

(Pictures taken last fall from the observation deck of the DMZ.)
