Plaques above the entrance memorialising the visits of Kim Il-sung (left), Kim Jong-il (middle) and Kim Jong-un (right).


The main control room which surprisingly was highly automated.


Unfortunately the factory was not operational today with the National Day weekend.


The Plant Manager explaining the production process to us with Ms. Chang translating.


Photographs of the three Kim's during their visits to the plant.


All of the bottling equipment was imported from Italy.


The final product on display next to a single bottle of Perrier, meant to show that is similar quality to the famous French brand.


A short walk from the factory in a wooded area was a building flanked by cartoonish bears holding bottles of the mineral water.


The building housed a display of the water source, showing the bubbling naturally carbonated water from the deep undergound aquifers.


We then got to try and buy a few bottles. Not quite Perrier but pretty close!
