Rain and mist over the verdant forest of the Myohyang mountains, North Pyongan Province, North Korea

You are not allowed to take photographs in the International Friendship Museum, the massive collection of "gifts" donated to the leaders of North Korea. Whilst the gifts range from the brash (a great deal of ornate carved ivory, trains, a plane) to the ridiculous (Swiss army knife, signed Wigan Rugby League shirt) it all pales to the natural beauty of the land outside the building. The Myohyang mountains echo classic Chinese paintings and geography in their splendour, and these you are allowed to photograph.
