I just came back from a trip into North Korea, and shot a lot of pictures of this one from several angles. Several times asked and to get IN it, but that was -not possible-. Guide told it is -almost finished-

Have to sort out all my photo's I took the days in 'DPRK' but here is some raw footage of the status as of 2 weeks ago. (as a new user I am not allowed to post a lot of links in my first posts on this forum)

anyone wants to see more? Send me a PM and I'll share the full set of hi res pictures with you.

it's amazing for a country like NK.
how do you get into NK? does it hard to get a trip to NK as a tourist?

I personally think this is one of the best looking towers in the world.

Enter via China (Beijing, Shenyang or Shanghai), Russia (Moscow or Vladivostok), Malaysia (KL) or Thailand (Bangkok).

For now group tours are the only available means of discovering NK...

The government has now allowed a group inside of it!

It is an awesome tower. Hopefully the interior is as great as the exterior.
