Come to the border of two Koreas where the Cold War can still be felt.
On a cold, but clear winter day I took a tour North, as there is no other way for a normal civilian to arrive at Panmunjom. There was some propaganda, which could be expected, but to me this made the tour just more interesting. We saw the flags of the nations who fought alongside the South Koreans against the North, after North Korea ("created" at the end of World War II) crossed the 38th parallel in 1950. It was a historical action, because it was the first one endorsed by the UN which had only been created 5 years before. The end of the war was, that the border was again established at around the 38th parallel in 1953. It had only cost somewhere near 2 million lives - one of the clearest cases of a useless war, if ever a useful one has been fought.
