Meet your tour guide at your hotel at 8:00 am for this private, one-day trip to a county along the border of North and South Korea. Drive for about 2.5 hours to Cheorwon County and visit the Second Incursion Tunnel, built by the North Korean military to invade South Korea and discovered on March 24, 1975. The total length of the tunnel is 3.5km.

Head for Cheorwon Peace Observatory, which was opened in November 2007. Enjoy panoramic views of both North and South Korea. The first floor of this observatory is an exhibition hall while the second floor is where the observatory is.

Visit the Woljeong-ri Station, one of the stops along the Gyeongwon Railroad Line that connected Seoul with Wonsan. The train station was used by the North and subsequently bombed by the U.N. forces. Your next destination is a former office of the Korean Workers' Party. This office was constructed in 1946 and remained the party's headquarters until the Korean War started on June 25, 1950. The building and structures were destroyed during the war and travelers can still see bullet holes inside the building.

Your final destination on the itinerary is the Goseokjeong Pavilion, built on the banks of the Hantangang River. Drive to back to Seoul at around 6:00 pm.
