A few days ago it was revealed that China had instituted a partial ban on some tourism to North Korea due to an impending visit by Donald Trump. An exception was granted only to daily tours to the border city of Sinuiju.
It just so happens that in early November I participated in such a tour, visiting the city with a group of Chinese tourists. I would like to tell you about my trip, and how North Korea has changed since I was last there three years ago.
