Basics About Pyongyang

The city of P'yŏngyang, commonly spelled Pyongyang, is the capital city of NORTH KOREA, a Communist country known for its isolationism and authoritative rule over the people. Pyongyang is also the largest city in the country. It is located about 25 miles east of the Yellow Sea, which is off the western coast of North Korea. The wide Taedong River and thinner streams flow through the city. Other large cities in North Korea include Chongjin, Hamhung, and Namp'o.
