North Korea's second largest city, the city center is very deserted, and there are not many foreign tourists on the street.

When it comes to cities in North Korea, most people think of Pyongyang for the first time. Pyongyang is the most prosperous and developed city in North Korea. Pyongyang is the largest city in North Korea, so which is the second largest city? The second largest city in North Korea is Kaesong, which is 0/70km away from Pyongyang/Kloc.

Kaesong is the ancient capital of North Korea, with a glorious history of more than 500 years, leaving various places of interest. Kaesong is very close to Panmunjom. Many foreign tourists visited Panmunjom and had to stop in Kaesong. Foreign tourists travel to North Korea, and the route is monotonous. The route is uniformly stipulated by the travel agency, and which scenic spots to visit and which streets to pass through are all arranged.

Walking on the streets of Kaesong, don't have a taste. Looking around, people feel that the streets are empty and there are few cars. The buildings on both sides are very old, and old people who set up stalls to repair shoes and bicycles can often be seen at the entrance of the old community. There are people squatting and chatting together, and life is very leisurely. Although it is the second largest city in North Korea, it is not lively at all. In the center of the city, there is no business district, no traffic, no hot construction site, and few shops on both sides of the road.

Kaicheng is not the same as peace. There are no trams and subways, and there are few buses on the street. There are few foreign tourists on the streets of Kaesong now. Many foreign tourists have visited Kaesong, but now they have disappeared. The copper meal we ate at the foreign-related hotel in Kaesong is said to be the treatment that only nobles could enjoy in ancient times. But I think the copper dinner is really ordinary. Except for kimchi, all the other foods are very light, and most of them are cold dishes.

Although you can order ginseng chicken yourself at the copper banquet, the price is not cheap. The price of a ginseng chicken is more than 200 RMB. China tourists are willing to spend money to travel to Kaesong. Ginseng chicken is also mainly sold to tourists in China. Some merchants in Kaesong are experienced in receiving tourists from China, and they welcome tourists from China very much. There are fewer foreign tourists coming to Kaesong now, and Kaesong is really deserted.
