Pyongyang Metro

north korea subwayNorth Korea underground

The Pyongyang Metro can boast having some of the most impressive underground stations in the world. Enormous mosaic walls portraying national achievements, chandeliers, tunnels going down on an average of 100 metres (indeed, some tunnels go even deeper down) and interior wooden decorated dim lit wagons with portrays of Kim Il Sung and his son Kim Jong Il, will all more than likely make taking the underground in Pyongyang somewhat different to what one may be used to.

The visit to the metro line gives visitors a chance to see and to some extent interact with local people getting along with their daily lives in the North Korean capital. You will also be likely to obtain some curious looks from the people you encounter, especially children and teenagers.
