Inside North Korean theme parks: even soldiers need to play

Inside North Korean theme parks: even soldiers need to play

Central Asia

It is very rare to get an inside look into the very secretive North Korea, let alone have insight into what the locals and soldiers do to let down their hair. Here we share a collection of photographs that get right inside two of Pyongyang’s theme parks, one so eerie and rundown that almost nil visitors enter the gates, and the other equally as neglected yet attracts the likes of locals, young soldiers and even Kim Jong Il.
