The images below were published by a group of members of the Korean Friendship Association after a visit to North Korea in 2004 on the official website of the Peoples Democratic Republic of Korea. It is rare to come across such good images from inside the PDR Korea and the album is worth visiting. There is unfortuneately not much information about the monuments attached to the images. The first two images below shows the main war memorial in DPR Korea for the Korean War 1950-53 in the Mansu Hill in Pyongyang. The third image shows what is descriped in the image caption as the Revolutionary Martyrs Cemetary, location undisclosed.
