Mansudae Hill, in Pyongyang, where visitors (locals and tourists) are invited to lay flowers and pay respects to the Great Leader Kim Il Sung. This statue impressed a lot of some of the african dictators, such as Ratzirak from Madagascar who ordered the same kind of statue to be built in his country. The Mansudae Grand Monument was erected in April, 1972 to commemorate the 60th birthday of President Kim Il Sung. It is located on Mansu Hill in front of the Korean Revolutionary Museum and the huge mosaic of Mt. Paektu. The bronze statue of the late President Kim is 66 ft. / 20 m. high and looks out over Pyongyang below. On either side of his statue are giant stone replicas of the Korean flag and the Workers Party of Korea flag. On either side of these flags are over 200 almost life-size bronze statues of various military and civilian figures in heroic poses. © Eric Lafforgue www.ericlafforgue.com

The laws of North Korea will make you glad you are living in any country but North Korea. To maintain complete control, everything is regulated down to the tiniest detail. Any deflection is severely punished -- even lethal. Ruling by fear and isolation has been the modus operandi of the Kim dynasty for generations.
Stéphan Gladieu was allowed into North Korea to shoot its people in amusement parks, cinemas and offices. Why, he wonders, did they let him?
Visitors to the DPRK expect to have their every move monitored, so it took travel blog The Velvet Rocket by surprise when they were dropped off at the beach unsupervised for a couple of hours. They set about meeting as many locals as they could, taking photos as they went. The results are a refreshing change from the stage-managed images often seen emerging from the country
