For Pyongyang, our capital!

July 15, 2025

For Pyongyang, our capital!—this expression is on everyone’s lips in the city.

The appearance of Pyongyang has changed beyond recognition over the past ten odd years.

In recent years alone, the ideal streets of the people including Songhwa, Hwasong, Rimhung and Jonwi streets sprang up along with many bases for the people’s cultural life, which are incomparable with the previous ones in terms of modernity, artistic quality and convenience.

The inauguration ceremony of the third-stage 10 000 flats in the Hwasong area took place last April and the fourth-stage construction project is now underway.

It is the Workers’ Party of Korea’s policy plan on the capital city construction to complete the construction of the Hwasong area and expand the formation of streets of Pyongyang in the direction of Kangdong as the next stage.

The appearance of Pyongyang will become more splendid in the future thanks to the unanimous desire of the working people to devote their all for Pyongyang, our capital, which will be more beautiful and more civilized and for our future which will be happier in the city.
