Imjingak DMZ South Korea

#seoul As the first stop of my DMZ tour in South Korea, I visited Imjingak which is a prominent area not to be missed about just 7km from the actual DMZ. Imjingak is famous as the place where Koreans separated from their families in North Korea visit to perform ancestral rites by bowing toward their hometowns every New Year’s Day and Chuseok (Korean Thanksgiving). Hence shrine monuments have also been built here for this very purpose at Imjingak. My rating of this attraction: 4 ⭐️ out of 5!
