Interesting photos from North Korea. Thank you for sharing them. How come you (are allowed to?) visit so many different places in the DPRK?

Thanks, Stephan, for your comment. These are all pictures I took on trips I arranged in cooperation with the Korea International Travel Company.

I see. I have been in contact with Ryohaengsa myself, for my tour this year. I asked to visit some of the places you have, but I have been told, that those are "unavailable for different reasons". Are you organizing tours to the DPRK or are you traveling for yourself?

This year's tour I organized as a fieldtrip for German geographers. But I was told by Ryohaengsa that they are planning another "grand tour" of this style in connection with next year's Arirang Festival (September 2009).

Wirklich wunderbare Fotos aus Nordkorea! Ich find die ganze "Situation" dort sehr faszinierend! Wie konnten Sie denn diese Fotos machen? In Reportagen wird ja berichtet, dass man nur in Begleitung reisen darf und alles sehr argwöhnisch beobachtet wird. Und zum Bild: Der Bus scheint ja schon einiges erlebt zu haben!
