Stricly on it's government terms, it is not accessible and safe to travel to North Korea. Even with the crisis going on, there is a demand for tourism. The North Korean government accepts a limited amount of tourists going from 2000 to 2500/year. People travelling to North Korea does not simply want to expand their own culture but they want to get a part of the history. Since the Cold War is still being fought in this country, there is much more than a relaxing trip to be lived. In North Korea, it is like going to another planet where mobile devices are unknown and internet is not an option. There is no freedom in this country either for the locals or for the tourist. Once you get to North Korea, as a tourist, you have to be accompanied by two approved local guides throughout your journey.
