Recently, news agencies frequently reported North Korea. The reason for this was the recent events related to the launch of a training missile toward Japan's refusal to negotiate on nuclear disarmament, as well as the threat of the resumption of its nuclear program. Media reported that North Korea's nuclear capability may be far greater than previously thought. Also recently there was the arrest of two US journalists on the border with China. Despite the increased attention to North Korea is still in the press continues to receive quite a few photos from that country. One way to "look behind the curtain" is photographed at the border. Recently, it has become quite popular, and there was quite a lot of curious tourists from neighboring China and South Korea. Collected here are photos, this is a look at the closed country outside
