What you can expect

Enjoy one of Korea’s most unique border experiences at the Paju Imjingak Peace Gondola. Located within the Imjingak Tourist Complex, this is the country’s first gondola to cross into the Civilian Control Zone—offering a rare journey over one of the world’s most heavily guarded frontiers.

Glide gently across the river between Imjingak Resort and Camp Greaves, where history unfolds beneath your feet. From above, catch striking views of barbed wire fences, watchtowers, and untouched natural landscapes shaped by decades of separation—an unforgettable contrast of tension and tranquility.

For an extra thrill, step into the crystal cabin with a transparent floor and take in the scenery from a whole new perspective.

Note: Entry into the Civilian Controlled Zone requires all visitors to complete a mandatory security pledge.

After your DMZ visit, slow things down with a relaxing 1-hour ginseng farm experience near the Paju Imjingak Peace Gondola—a perfect balance of culture and nature.

Step onto a local farm and discover why Korean ginseng has been treasured for centuries. Walk through the shaded fields where this prized root is carefully cultivated, and learn about its unique growing process, health benefits, and deep connection to Korean heritage.

You’ll have the chance to see, touch, and even harvest fresh ginseng, along with a variety of ginseng-based products. It’s a calm, hands-on experience that offers a refreshing break after the powerful atmosphere of the DMZ—leaving you with both insight and a taste of Korea’s most iconic ingredient.
