Hungnam, Konan

Hungnam, a major industrial center on North Korea's east coast, offers a window into the nation's industrial might for visiting sailors.  While designated sights for tourists are likely nonexistent, the massive factories and shipyards themselves might be a sight to behold.  Shopping options will be restricted to government-controlled stores with basic necessities and possibly a few local crafts. Don't expect a wide variety of dining options; restaurants here will likely serve traditional Korean fare. Nightlife, similar to other North Korean ports, is virtually absent in Hungnam.  However, you can relax and unwind after a long journey, taking in the unique atmosphere of this industrial city.
