"Wonsan,
a modern port city on the east coast, is the political, economic
and cultural centre of Kangwon Province. The city had been razed
to the ground during the Fatherland Liberation War. The US
imperialists dropped 13 bombs and shells per square metre on it.
But the city rose from the ashes and it has now become a
beautiful tourist centre. Haean, Yokjon, Naewonsan and Songdo
Streets, which can be overlooked from Mts. Koryong and Songbong,
Song Pass and Kochun Hill are lined with various shapes of
public buildings and apartment blocks and they blend well with
the seashore scenery. The seashore and residential areas abound
with parks and pleasure grounds. Songdowon beach in particular
is famous for its scenic beauty. The city has heavy industries
which produce freight cars and ships, and light
industries."
