Kangwon Province of the DPRK has made the visitors deeply grasp the noble spirit and transparent ideological and spiritual world of the revolutionary forerunners through the study tour of the Ryongpho Revolutionary Site and the Ponghwajae Temporary Secret Base of the Wonsan City Revolutionary Battle Site.

The Ryongpho Revolutionary Site is a significant place associated with President Kim Il Sung’s exploits performed in winning the victory in the Fatherland Liberation War. The President inspected the place in April Juche 40 (1951) to inspire service personnel of the Korean People’s Army with matchless courage and invincible strategy and aroused the people to victory in the war.

Going round the historical relics and data, the visitors keenly realized that the victory in war is the victory of the peerlessly illustrious commander’s outstanding military ideas, Juche-based war methods and superb strategy and tactics.

The Ponghwajae Temporary Secret Base of the Wonsan City Revolutionary Battle Site shows the feats of members of a small unit of the Korean People’s Revolutionary Army who aroused the broad masses to the all-people resistance for national liberation, true to the Juche-oriented revolutionary line set forth by the President at the historic Xiaohaerbaling Meeting in August 1940.

Officials, working people, youth and students looked round trees bearing such slogans as "Passionate young people, let’s oppose the conscription and labor draft and go to Mt Paektu to follow Commander Kim Il Sung".

Through the study tour, they were resolved to wage a more dynamic struggle for attaining the goal set forth by the Eighth Congress of the Workers’ Party of Korea under the leadership of the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un.
