Hamhung City Street Scenes - North Korea, DPRK

2 minute view out on the street in Hamhung City, North Korea, DPRK. Hamhung is in the North East of the country near the Bay of the East (Yellow) Sea and is a major industrial area. A farmer walks his bullock and cart down the main street / side walk - and one of the many steam / gas powered trucks which we weren't allowed to film.

Children's camp in Hamhung, North Korea

Another reason visiting North Korea became one of my most educational and thought-provoking experiences, as well as of my travel-mates. This experience was too incredible not to include it on my blog's main page (if you haven't been reading my North Korea posts, click -- -- to see the videos I've been posting of my trip there last April -- some inspirational, all educational).

Our tour bus took us to a kids camp in Hamhung, North Korea, then to the city. I don't know how they chose to take us to see kids, but it seems they brought us to a lot of kids places.

After our amazing experiences interacting with North Koreans directly at Kim Il Sung Square -- -- as well as playing Ultimate Frisbee in Pyongyang the year before -- -- we were poised to have fun with the kids.

I think beyond that, the videos need little explanation. It was an amazing experience in North Korea.

Sorry about the buzzing sound at the beginning. It goes away.

In the second part, when I did the fist-bumps, maybe as an American in North Korea I shouldn't have been saying boom.

The kids love being on camera. Between takes I showed them themselves in pictures on the screen on the back of my camera. Needless to say, they loved it.

The last part starts with Jordan showing the kids pictures from his camera, then shows the kids, then shows the difficulty of leaving when you're having so much fun.

I posted more about this video here --

My beachside chalet at Hamhung, North Korea.

A guided tour of the chalet. Hamhung is on the east coast of DPRK/North Korea and is the 2nd largest city after Pyongyang. This little resort was in a very peaceful spot away from the city centre. One of the highlights of the trip! You fell asleep and woke up to the gentle sound of the waves. Apologies for the low-level lighting: this seems to be the norm for the country.

Hamhung at night.

A video of Hamhung, DPRK at night in April 2012, this video was shot during the city's annual 'air raid practice' according to my North Korean guide. For about an hour the city was plunged into total darkness with only one or two lights remaining on. During the hour a car with loud speakers sat in the middle of the deserted road blaring out propoganda messages and music.
