Imjingak Pyeonghoa-Nuri Park

45 min Admission included

Freedom Bridge: The bridge was built for temporarily use, so there is not much significance in its architecture. However, the bridge got its name because South Koreans came back to South Korea through this bridge from North Korea after the signing of the Armistice Agreement.
