Sariwon - Historical Sites in North Korea

Sariwon is a lively city located to the south of Pyongyang in North Hwanghae Province. If interested in seeing Korean ancient cultural relics, a trip here after having visited Mt. Changbang may be an appealing option on the way north from the DMZ.

Sariwon is known to produce the country's tastiest Maccoli, a well known Korean alcoholic beverage.

You will be able to see the Korean folkloric village which hosts the territorial map of Korea's cultural ruins and historical relics. The old part of town is also home to the Provincial History Museum, various pavilions and houses in the style of the Ancient and Middle era of Korea.

 

Travellers will have a chance to walk around the old town and enter one of the several Macolli bars where locals enjoy the local beverage.
