Spectacular indeed is the indoor wading pool.

The respected Marshal Kim Jong Un suggested building the Munsu Water Park and examined its design on 113 occasions, giving energetic guidance to the whole course of project.

The water park was completed in a matter of only 9 months by soldier builders.

It was inaugurated on October 15, Juche 102(2013).

The attendants at the ceremony were surprised at a peculiar scene.

Senior officials of the Party and the state held the ribbon and it was cut by ordinary people such as a soldier, a student and a worker.

The unusual scene was showing that ordinary working people and youth and children are the masters of the new splendid recreation ground and the enjoyers of socialist civilization.

Looking round the Munsu Water Park, foreigners and overseas Koreans admire that the Workers’ Party of Korea’s plan of building a socialist civilized state is being brought into reality under its people-centred politics.
