Pyongyang, the capital city of the DPRK has changed its appearance splendidly day by day with the mighty spirit of our motherland where the new history of gigantic change has been ushered in.

The proud changes which make the breathing of the great era of our state-first principle leaping forward with youthful vibrance continuously pulsate and give firm conviction of brilliant future are the vivid picture of a new age of Pyongyang prosperity brought by the wise leadership of the respected General Secretary Kim Jong Un who translates the people’s dreams and ideals into reality.

It is the remarkable exploits performed by the respected General Secretary before the country, revolution, history and people to set models of the times in the people-first architecture and add luster to the capital city more brilliantly with the monumental edifices in keeping with the appearance of the great power.

Pyongyang is a really fantastic and beautiful capital city.

Unha Scientists Street, the Ryugyong Health Complex, the People’s Open-air Ice Rink, the Munsu Water Park, the Okryu Children’s Hospital, the Sci-Tech Complex, Mirae Scientists Street, Ryomyong Street, Songhwa Street, Kyongru-dong, Hwasong Street, etc. – such numberless edifices are the masterpieces of our new era born by the brilliant intelligence, all-powerful creative power, unlimited enthusiasm and outstanding leadership of the respected General Secretary, who sees to it that all edifices are built perfectly for the future at fast speed as well as surpassing the world standard, and lively ones that practically show the true feature of our state development.

Once the respected General Secretary clarified his grand plan for ushering in a new era of high civilization in the 21st century and stressed as follows:

We should firmly maintain the Juche character and properly combine the national character with modernity by embodying the people-first principle in the construction and perfectly build world-level monumental edifices at an exceptionally rapid speed – this is the fundamental principle and main core of the idea of the Juche-oriented architecture to be held fast to by us in the construction.

Herein lies the essence, character, clear goal and direction of the Juche-oriented architecture in the great era of Kim Jong Un and also the obvious answer how the new period of Pyongyang prosperity was ushered in and by what it was guaranteed.

The new age of Pyongyang prosperity is a historic miracle performed by the ardent desire of the respected General Secretary who has suffered any difficulties willingly for the people and always wished to provide them with happiness as soon as possible.

Now our Party has energetically led the historic work to build the modern new streets including third-stage 10 000 flats construction project in the Hwasong area while expanding the urban areas of Pyongyang to the direction of east, west and north.

Now the models and standards of the Juche-oriented architecture representing the great era of Kim Jong Un are being created and the country’s future to be unfolded more brilliantly with the great heyday of construction are in store for us.

Thanks to the wise leadership of the respected General Secretary, Pyongyang will adorn the history of the country with the everlasting heyday pulsating with the country’s strong power and the times’ breathing of making a leap forward, shining more brilliantly.
