Overview

Visit the unique Starbucks on Aegibong Peace Ecopark and Jogang Observatory in Civilian Control Zone closest to DMZ

See North Korea on the observatory only 1.4 km away from N. Korea!

Aegibong Peace Ecopark was originally Hill 154, where the two Koreas fought fiercely during the Korean War located at the mouth of the Hangang River along with the Jogang River.

Aegibong is famous for the place where displaced people often visit. After the Korean War, many displaced people missed their homes and visited Aegibong to see their hometown. Also, famous for the Starbucks cafe on the observatory now.

The old observatory was established in 1978, but was demolished and it was renewed by the name of Jogang observatory where you can see the northern land from the closest distance.

This Ecopark is a symbolic place representing peace and harmony.

Used to known with a huge Christmas tree, but Christmas lights were too bright to N. Korea and it caused conflict due to lack of electricity in N. Korea.
