PLAN THE VISIT
A reviewed foundation built from official sources. Traveler edits are checked before publication.
It does not prove today's route includes the station, open door, photography permission, available seat, unrestricted platform or independent access.
Checked August 30, 2026. Recheck current hours, admission, closures and transport before travel.
The place coordinate is exact; use the named gate, parking area or accessible entrance for the final route.
DAY-OF PLAN
The station is inside the Civilian Control Zone and cannot be visited independently or selected as a one-stop permit. Military operations, weather and route maintenance can omit it even when DMZ tourism is operating.
The current county guide lists same-day in-person registration for individual visitors, no phone or internet reservation, and Tuesday closure. Arrive before the 15-minute cutoff with the required identity document and follow the assigned convoy.
Do not leave the group, cross a barrier, approach rails or photograph during controlled vehicle movement. The guide or military instruction on the day overrides any previous visitor report.
MAKE A HALF-DAY OF IT
