Liberty Bell at the DMZ

| This temple and its liberty bell were opened in New Year 2000 as a sign of hope of the two Koreas being able to be reunited in the next century.... | ||
The photo I could not take
24 March 2002 | ||
 |
||
| At the DMZ there are very strict rules regarding the use of photography. So I was not allowed to take any pictures - needless to say I was devastated ;-) This photo is a model of what I saw.... A giant field, with two giant flagposts showing off the flags of the North and the South. A clear day, seeing the empty Propaganda villages at the North Korea border and in the distance a city of 200,000.... And giant eagles with an enormous wingspan following our bus later, mocking two huge twin-blade helicopters flying before them..... | ||
