[Touring TIPS]

1. For those that are experiencing some body aches after hiking all day long, it would be a good idea to spend some extra time at the Geumgangsan Hot Springs.
2. Bring along an extra water bottle when you go hiking. There are several points along the  hiking courses where you can collect some mineral water. It is said that one cup will make you look 10 years younger. It would also be advisable to bring some snacks along, as there is no place to purchase food along the way.
3. If you wish to sample some tasty northern-style cuisine at Geumgangwon restaurant; try to  make your reservation for the first night. Most people don’t make their reservations for  the first night, thus giving those first-night diners a quiet and relaxing atmosphere.
4. It is best to exchange money before departing for North Korea. (ONLY US dollars are used)
5. Picture taking is not permitted during the acrobatic performance. However, once  the performance is over, spectators are allowed to take pictures as the performance come out  for a round of applause.
 Postcard and other pictures of the performance can be purchased at Hotel Haegeumgang
6. Taking pictures of North Korean people is not allowed. That being said, you can try
 asking politely to take your picture with a North Korean person. The waitresses in the
 restaurants are rather receptive to the idea.
