The city of
Sinuiju in North Korea is a pleasure for the tourists with nice landscapes supported by the flow of river and convenient transportation.
Sinuiju, officially known as
Sinuiju-si in North Korea makes the capital of North P'yongan Province.
The Yalu (Amnok) River flowing across the city forms the border with the neighboring country China. The Sino-Korea Friendship Bridge (or China-Korea Friendship Bridge) connects the city of Dandong in China with the city of
Sinuiju. The distance between Dandong and
Sinuiju is merely 1.9 miles.
There is a pretty big list of must visit sites for the tourists. They should plan their itinerary to visit the beautiful sites of the Tonggun Pavilion, Waterfall, and Hot Springs. Since the average temperature of
Sinuiju is as low as 9 degree Celsius, the tourists find it a pleasure to take baths in the Hot Springs. To attract the tourists in
Sinuiju, a Ferris wheel overlooking the Yalu River was built though it has never been in function. Though ineffective, the Ferris wheel provides a delightful view for the tourists.
