Ho Guom is located in the heart of the capital, spanning an area of 12 hectares. |
Some of the lake’s notable features are the many trees which line its banks. The national flags of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK), Vietnam, and the US can also be seen throughout the area ahead of the forthcoming second DPRK-USA Summit. |
