Itinerary
Aegibong is famous for the place where displaced people often visit. After the Korean War, many displaced people missed their homes and visited Aegibong to see their hometown. Also, famous for the Starbucks cafe on the observatory now. The old observatory was established in 1978, but was demolished and it was renewed by the name of Jogang observatory where you can see the northern land from the closest distance. Used to known with a huge Christmas tree, but Christmas lights were too bright to N. Korea and it caused conflict due to lack of electricity in N. Korea. The tree was removed, but Aegibong Peace Ecopark workers built the bridges in shape of the tree. This Ecopark is a symbolic place representing peace and harmony.

Egibo Tour
I really liked the easy-to-understand explanation about Sung-yeon's history and friendly personality
Valuable experience
It was a great time. It was fun to have my photo taken. Guide: Sungyoung
Thank you, Sung-yeon, for the driver!
Sung Yeon's service and response were perfect! I'm running a company in Japan and I'll tell my employees to nominate Sungyoung when I get back! He also took care of my daughter when she became ill, and the driver had water! Thank you so much for your support!
It was a great experience! ✨
I joined the tour from 7/3 and 8. Sung Yeon, our guide, was the best!! From the beginning to the end of the tour, we were full of care for our guests. I also had a lot of knowledge (history, etc.) about the tour, so I never got bored explaining. I want to join Sung Yeon's tour again!!
Starbucks with North Korea in sight
Sung Yeon guided me through the process. It was an interesting experience. I got a lot of photos and I learned a lot from listening to interesting stories.
