Terrible, oppressive, high density architecture.
I noticed people using a footbridge there, with a uniformed (?) policewoman next to it, over a road with no cars on it.
Is using the footbridge compulsory?
Are you allowed to answer questions Tapedong?

That's because only government officials are allowed to have cars, bikes, & cell phones. Everyone else are not allowed to shat without the government knowing about it. It's really sad.
If Kim Jong-Il & his cronies didn't spend so much money & time spying on their own people, this Stalinist hell-hole would be a lot better than it is today.

Why do they paint the base of all the trees? They might be short on food but not white paint.

I think some of the creepiness comes from the lack of signs and advetisments. While this was a "downtown" area, in the US and other nations, you will still see some billboards or neon...I didn't see any. I saw quite a few flags, though.

Horrific fact about this city ...
Tapedong is from the city of Hamhung according to his profile.
10 percent of the cities population died in the famines of the 90s.
The area of improvised graves in the city EXCEEDS the total populated area of the city.
satellite photos here.

Exactly what I was thinking, if they keep antagonizing the rest of the world they may end up in worse shape then Chernobyl.

With two American journalists in prison for "spying" I don't think I would visit this land of hope and plenty, this cradle of wealth, this extraordinary civilization and risk losing my personal freedom.

Nobody can afford to own a private car unless you are a senior gov official. Place looks creepy with so few cars.
