Take a look at this fascinating online Lonely Planet guide to North Korea. If you’re looking for a country with “exquisite national parks” and free of pesky tourists, North Korea might be the ideal destination. Who knew that North Korea looks beautiful in the autumn and feeds tourists “very well?” I love the “off the beaten track” section — as opposed to all of those tacky, well-worn tracks with themed restaurants, postcards, and people hawking t-shirts. The only catch? You can’t go. “If you’re from the US or South Korea you can pretty much forget about it,” Lonely Planet regretfully discloses. That’s really too bad.
