As online travel sales soar with more and more Indians taking their bookings online

Tinesh Bhasin
The historic meeting between US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has brought the latter country into the limelight after many years. And many people might be wondering what is North Korea all about. After all, there is a shroud of secrecy about the country which many travellers would want to explore. The good news for them is that the country is open for tourism. But these are all guided tours, and many areas are off-limits. More importantly, carry cash as the country does not accept cards or internet payment.
