Pyongyang-Hyangsan motorway

This motorway was planned to connect the capital with the city of Huichon in Jagang Province but the last section was never completed. The completed part which was opened to traffic in 1995 ends rather abruptly in Hyangsan at the entrance to the Myohyang Mountains. So the original "Pyongyang-Huichon Motorway" ended up as "Pyongyang-Hyangsan Tourist Motorway". It is mainly used by a handful of tourists visiting Myohyang Mountains and the ghastly International Friendship Exhibition.
