What should I pay attention to when traveling to North Korea? How much money do you want to bring?

A: It's up to you to decide how much money to bring. I suggest going out. About 1000 to 2000 RMB. There may be Korean ginseng recommended by the tour guide at all prices, but I don't think it's worth buying! & lt's note >: You can't use UnionPay cards there. You should bring enough cash.

B: As for what should be paid attention to, before the guests leave for North Korea, I'll show you the "sightseeing instructions" of our travel agency.

North Korea tourism information

Ladies and gentlemen: Hello!

Welcome to the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

In order to make your trip pleasant, I would like to introduce you to the matters needing attention and relevant regulations and requirements of your trip to North Korea.

? Respect North Korea's national conditions and develop China-DPRK friendship. North Korea is a friendly neighbor of China, and the two peoples have a profound friendship and have withstood the test of "war". The purpose of traveling to North Korea is to strengthen the friendly exchanges between the people of China and North Korea, enhance friendship and appreciate exotic customs. We should respect the customs and democratic feelings of the Korean people. Respect the leader of the Korean people and don't make noise or sit down and take pictures in front of the bronze statue of Comrade Kim Il Sung. Don't comment on North Korea's politics, economy and leaders, and don't impose your views on others.

? Pay attention to manners and establish a good image. After you arrived in North China, your words, actions and actions not only represented yourself, but also represented the image of the entire Korean people. Therefore, when you are in contact with North Korean personnel,

Be warm and friendly, be polite, and don't be frivolous and rude. Don't talk loudly and drink alcohol in public places. Pay attention to public health, don't spit everywhere, throw cigarette butts, peels and other sundries, especially don't throw things (including souvenirs) from the window along the way. Take care of every grass and tree in North Korea, and don't trample on the lawn. Take good care of the hotel facilities and compensate the hotel facilities and spare parts according to the price. There is no floor drain in the bathroom of North Korea guest room. Don't run outside when using water. Turn off the water and electricity, and turn off the tap when you go to bed or go out. In short, although the travel time is short, it is necessary to leave a good impression on the Korean people.

? Ensure travel time and observe travel discipline. We are organized group tours, and we hope all tourists have a strong sense of time and discipline. Abide by the regulations of the joint inspection departments of China and North Korea, and do not take mobile phones, binoculars, Korean currency and other items out of the country (no cameras for one-day tours), internal documents, newspapers and magazines that are not publicly released and other items that are prohibited from leaving the country. The Ministry of Food and Agriculture is allowed to bring them back to China from abroad. If you have any comments or requirements on the arrangement of tourist routes and scenic spots, you can negotiate with the Chinese tour leader to solve them. Don't leave the group without permission, and don't enter ordinary people's homes without permission. It is forbidden to take pictures of the restricted area and the scenery that is not allowed to visit. Taking pictures requires the permission of the North Korean tour guide. It is not allowed to greet Korean soldiers when visiting Kaesong.

? Help each other to ensure safety. The first thing is to pay attention to personal safety and help each other when encountering difficulties and problems. Pay attention to safety when climbing mountains, don't act alone, don't cross the road, and don't fall behind when visiting scenic spots. Take care of your valuables, such as cameras and video cameras, so as not to lose them in a hurry.

? Get ready before you go out. Fully prepare the necessary items during the tour, such as toothpaste, toothbrush, film, battery, drinks, food, etc. In addition, during the trip to North Korea, North Korean tour guides, drivers, scenic guides, hotel service personnel, etc. Will serve us, and we will also visit schools and children's palaces. You can prepare some small gifts to show your friendship and gratitude. Gifts should be given solemnly and politely at appropriate times and occasions. In addition, due to the current traffic and power shortage in North Korea, sometimes trains can't run on time. I hope you can understand.

The above are the relevant precautions for traveling to the DPRK. I hope all friends can consciously abide by the above regulations and requirements.
