Geocache Description:

North Korea. The only country, that has high security system. The
only country, where 25% of population joined the army. The only
country, that provides almost no information about live of the
ordinary people ...
No matter how strange or nice it is, once you get inside, you
will see everything with your own eyes. And geocaching is about
finding interesting places and making your own opinion ...

It is not important, how many lies did you find in North Korea. It is not important how many "strange" experiences did you experince in North Korea.

The important thing is only one - to make your own oppinion about North Korea - not influenced by North Korean propaganda, not influenced by western propaganda... just influenced by your own experiences.

The cache is small magnetic nano. There are 2 people, who take care about the cache, but the palce with cache visit about 100.000 people every day. So I will not be wondering, if the container is lost.

If you cannot (GPS is not alowed by law in North Korea, so if you have one, leave it on the airport !!! ) or you are not alowed to search for the container, you can take 4 pictures in North Korea to prove, that you visited the country.

Picture number 1 - you and the Juche tower

Picture number 2 - you and the Arch of Triumph

Picture number 3 - you and PchjongJang Skyline hotel

Picture number 4 - you and Nort Korean soldier (I recommend you to ask your "guides" before you take photo of you and the soldier)

If you are not sure about the pictures, see the spoiler.
