Samjiyon County Undergoes Facelift

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK via Korea News Service (KNS)

   Pyongyang, October 30 (KCNA) -- The Samjiyon area, located in the northern part of Korea, is being facelifted more beautifully and colorfully. New kinds of street lamps are being installed in the streets of Samjiyon Township to suit the peculiarities of loop line roads, buildings and residential quarters.
    Tall lamps are being set up along Potnamu (white birch) Street and other main streets of the township and relatively low lamps being set up along the roads from around the Samjiyon Schoolchildren's Palace to the Lake Samji and the "Kapsan-Musan guard road" to blend well with forest scenery.
    Garden lamps and clutches of lamps are being installed in the areas around the Paektu Museum, the Chonji Health Complex and other monumental buildings to add beauty to the nocturnal view of the streets.
    The project started in late September.
