White Horse Hill is a small Korean War memorial site 2.5km from the border of North Korea. The site consists of a small shop and a cobbled pathway leading to a monument on the top of the hill. The monument resembles the one in front of the War Memorial in Seoul: 2 halves of the same sculpture representing the 2 Koreas.
There are 2 small artifact rooms along the path and a marble monument listing the names of fallen soldiers.
Entry is free.

"Baengma-goji was a 395-metre (1,296 ft) hill in the Iron Triangle, formed Pyonggang at its peak and Gimhwa-eup and Cheorwon at its base, was a strategic transportation route in the central region of the Korean peninsula. During ten days of battle, the hill would change hands 24 times after repeated attacks and counterattacks for its possession. It was one of the most intense position-grasping battle for a small hill during the course of the Korean War. Afterwards, Baengma-goji looked like a threadbare white horse, thence its name of Baengma, meaning a white horse." (Wikipedia)
