Unification Pavilion

The Unification Pavilion is a two-story building with traditional Korean architectural features located in the Joint Security Area near the border. It contains several conference rooms designed for diplomatic meetings and discussions between representatives.

The pavilion was built in 1985 during the Cold War era as a designated meeting place for diplomatic talks between North and South Korea. It remains an important location for ongoing negotiations between the two nations.

The building displays traditional Korean design features like curved rooflines and decorative patterns that show regional construction methods. Visitors can observe these architectural details as they move through the main entrance and corridors.

Access requires advance permission through authorized tour operators and visitors must follow specific security protocols. It is helpful to prepare for required procedures and pay close attention to guide instructions throughout your visit.

The structure was designed to create a neutral environment for sensitive talks, with each room built to identical specifications to prevent either side from gaining an advantage. This intentional symmetry ensures balance during all discussions held within.
