On Mt Myohyang in the DPRK which is renowned for the unsurpassed scenery, there spread extensively the mountain-climbing route which is helpful to command a bird`s-eye view of the natural landscape.
In May Juche 70(1981) Chairman Kim Jong Il climbed the steep cliffy road to open up a new route and gave detailed instruction to set up safety facilities.
In the whole sections of mountain-climbing route running over 68km, safety rail chains were built, diverse shapes of bridges and more than 14 000 stairs built in various places of the mountain-climbing route and some 1 500 grooves of foot made in rocky roads.
