Rason International Trade Exhibition Tourism

The Rason International Trade Exhibition is an event that takes place in Rason, a special economic zone in North Korea. This economic zone lies in the northeastern part of the country, where North Korea borders Russia and China, making it strategically important for trade. The exhibition is aimed at promoting trade, investment, and economic exchange between North Korea and the international community. It showcases a variety of goods, services, and investment opportunities offered by North Korean and foreign companies. Rason itself provides a unique glimpse into North Korea, with more relaxed economic regulations compared to the rest of the country, and visitors to the exhibition can get a sense of the country's trade potential. The city was jointly developed with China and Russia and is a hub of transportation with a port on the East Sea (Sea of Japan) and access to rail lines and roads that connect with its neighbors. The exhibition occurs in an environment that blends North Korean culture with influences from its international partners, with the potential to learn about the region’s economic landscape and the overall dynamics of North-East Asian commerce.
