As of July 1, 2025, the DPRK is already issuing a new type of visa. The visa now features a personal photograph and a machine-readable line. The visa application form has also been redesigned both in appearance and content. When the country officially opens for tourism, it will also be possible to obtain visas without having them affixed to the passport.

✈️ DIRECT FLIGHTS MOSCOW–PYONGYANG! On July 8, 2025, the Russian airline Nordwind received authorization from the Federal Air Transport Agency of Russia to operate direct flights between Moscow and Pyongyang with a frequency of twice a week. This will be the first direct flight from Europe to the DPRK since the collapse of the USSR.

Flight information has already appeared in the schedule of Moscow’s Sheremetyevo Airport. According to the system, the flights will operate once a week: departures from Moscow on Mondays and return flights on Tuesdays.

Nordwind’s fleet consists of 27 Airbus and Boeing aircraft. The first flight is scheduled for July 29.

In 2012, the North Korean airline Air Koryo planned to launch direct flights between Berlin and Pyongyang, but the project was never realized.

Today, June 25, 2025, marks exactly 75 years since the beginning of the Korean War (1950–53), one of the most tragic events of the 20th century for the Korean people. The war resulted in the division of the Korean nation, which continues to this day. The Victorious Fatherland Liberation War Museum in Pyongyang is one of the most impressive museums in the North Korean capital. The museum can only be visited as part of an organized group.

Latest news about the Kalma Beach Resort (the largest beach resort in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea)

The opening is scheduled for early July, as planned. The road distance between Pyongyang and Kalma is 220 km, but currently the only transportation option available to tourists is a domestic flight from Pyongyang to Wonsan. Air Koryo plans to operate regular flights between Pyongyang and Wonsan three times a week throughout July and August, continuing until mid-September. For now, tours to Kalma are available only to Russian citizens, and standard accommodation is offered at the Chammae Hotel (see photos). We are awaiting further updates from our Korean partners.

THE LONGEST NONSTOP RAILWAY ROUTE IN THE WORLD HAS RESUMED SERVICE
Did you know what the longest nonstop railway route in the world is? It's between Pyongyang and Moscow. The distance spans over 10,000 km, with a travel time of 8 days. In 2020, this route was shut down due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, a decision has now been made to resume service. On June 17, 2025, the first nonstop carriage in 5 years will depart from Pyongyang to Moscow.



From Moscow the train will operate on the 12th and 26th of each month, arriving in Pyongyang on the 20th and 4th, respectively. Passenger transportation will be carried out in carriages operated by the DPRK railways.

Additionally, train service between Beijing and Ulaanbaatar resumed in early June 2025, after being halted in 2020 due to the pandemic.

At the end of May 2025, a new railway station building was opened in Tumangang, located in the Rason Special Economic Zone. Tumangang is a small North Korean settlement situated near the borders of China and Russia. For comparison, here is a photo of the old station, taken in 2018.
Tumangang is connected to Russia by rail, and as of today, it is the only type of land transportation between the two countries—until the construction of a road bridge, which is scheduled to open in June 2026.
