Rimyongsu Waterfall

Topped with a pavilion, the Rimyongsu Falls is a stunning scenic spot in Rimyongsu village nearby Samjiyon town. Underground streams reach the basalt rockface and flow out of the fissures to form 15-meter cascading waterfalls. The falls never freeze in winter and as the water escapes the embankment, it’s said to look like white frosted flowers. Great to visit all year round if you’re in the area!
