International Friendship Exhibition, Museum in North Pyongan Province, North Korea

Located in Myohyangsan, this museum consists of 150 rooms spread across 70,000 square meters, displaying diplomatic gifts received by North Korean leaders.

The International Friendship Exhibition opened its doors in 1978 to showcase gifts from foreign dignitaries to North Korean leaders Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il.

The museum building incorporates traditional Korean architectural elements, and visitors must remove their shoes and bow to portraits of leaders during tours.

The exhibition halls contain between 60,000 and 220,000 items, including a silver sword from Yasser Arafat and an armored limousine from Joseph Stalin.

Despite its exterior appearance suggesting windows, the massive structure built into the mountainside contains no actual windows throughout its entire construction.
