Historical Remains of Kaesong (set of 26) (DPR Korea)
If you’ve been wanting a set of DPRK cards, may as well go for a BIG set.

These are buildings, statues, natural features, a mausoleum, Jokjosa Soibucho, all sorts of things, and at a cost much lower than most of our individual DPRK cards. Grade: 1
