Kim Il-sung Square also contains an underground market that is only open to locals, in addition to the Juche Tower. All of the goods you require for your daily life can be found here. Coffee can also be had at the Austrian Coffee House, which is run by an Austrian company. It has a Viennese feel to it and serves delectable pastries and other delectable dishes. The Mansu hill statue is a must-see in Kim I-sung Square. It's a huge, intimidating building with a hammer, sickle, and calligraphy brush on it. It was created in the 1950s to commemorate the party's 50th anniversary, and it boasts an unusually colorful environment. The structure is bordered by red residential structures, giving the area a distinctly Viennese character.
