2025-07-21

“Myongsasimni” on the banks of Amnok River Myongsasimni refers to the beautiful sandy beach on the Kalma peninsula, a scenic spot on the East Sea of Korea. It has become more famous as a large-scale coastal tourist area was built there in a distinctive style. Such “Myongsasimni” has also come into being on the banks of the Amnok River. The area consists of several islands in the lower reaches of the river in North Phyongan Province. The area, severely damaged by flood in July last year, has been turned into a wonderful modern rural town in a little more than 130 days. The natural landscape along the river banks and the different types of building groups resemble the Kalma coastal tourist area. The new scenery of the Amnok riverside, reflecting a “modern rural town” boasting unique architectural beauty around the islets, is a great spectacle in the border city of Sinuiju. As advanced urban civilization has been spread not only to Wihwa Island but also to Taji, Ojok and other islands around Uiju County and the city of Sinuiju, all traces of natural disaster and backwardness of the rural area have been removed to give way to enchanting views to be envied by the world.
