Rungra Island Tourism

Rungna Island is a small, yet significant piece of land situated in the West Sea of Korea, near Haeju city in South Hwanghae province, North Korea. It covers an area of approximately 1.3 square kilometers. Renowned for its amusement park, this island is a symbol of the country's effort to provide leisure and recreational facilities to its people. The Rungna People's Pleasure Ground is a prominent feature of the island, inaugurated in 2012, hosting a dolphinarium, a mini-golf course, a swimming pool, and various other attractions. The Rungra People's Pleasure Ground on Rungra Island is a key element of North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un's plan to modernize Pyongyang. The island is also home to the May Day Stadium, one of the largest stadiums in the world by capacity, which is regularly used for large-scale events, including the Arirang Mass Games. Rungna Island holds a distinctive place in North Korea's cultural and social landscape, often displayed as a model of the nation's development and prosperity.
