- The Freedom Bridge, located behind the Wangbaitan in front of the Imjingak Square in Majeong-ri, Munsan-eup, was named after the 12,733 prisoners of war who were returned to freedom across this bridge in 1953. The bridge's symbolic significance as a symbol of "return to freedom" makes it a representative legacy of the Korean War.
- Wangbaetan is visited by millions of Koreans and foreigners every year as a tourist attraction for unity and security, where they remember the divided past and hope for peaceful reunification.
- The steam locomotive at Jangdan Station on the Gyeongui Line, a symbol of the North-South War division, remained unattended in the Demilitarized Zone for over half a century after suffering numerous bombings and derailments during the war. Its 1,020 bullet holes and twisted wheels reveal the tragic conditions it endured while transporting military supplies from Kaesong to Pyongyang.
- Dorasan Observatory is the southernmost and northernmost observatory in North Korea. Through the telescope, you can see Songhaksan Mountain, the statue of Kim Il-sung, Kijong-dong, the outskirts of Kaesong and the Geumgol Valley.

Discovered in 1978, the tunnel is 52 kilometers from Seoul and is 2 meters wide, 2 meters high, and 1,635 meters long. It can transport 30,000 soldiers per hour, and the entire journey takes about 3-4 hours.
