Kwang On-yoo sent me a link to some very interesting historical photos of the Korean Peninsula which are archived by the University of Southern California’s Digital Library. Below are some choice pictures from what is now the DPRK:

A while ago I posted a map of Pyongyang in 1946. I spent some time looking for thess Pyongyang locations but did not have any luck. Kija’s Tomb still exists today on Moran Hill. Let me know if you can find where any of these buildings used to be located.
UPDATE 1: Here is the Chilsong Gate.
