That eery wonderland of weird and misery that is North Korea has its epicentre on this place : the Ryugyong Hotel — the 105 - story skyscraper erected in Pyongyang to the resplendence of whatever Kim was ruling back in 1987 , when construction commence .
That mental synthesis stop in 1992 , after the declivity of the Soviet Union , and resume in 2008 only to stop and restart several times . Nobody cognize what was inner until now : a fully grown pile of nothingness .
Theseexclusive images taken by blog NK Newsjust show empty , naked blank . Concrete , concrete , concrete everywhere .
The country official say that , whenever the hell it gravel finished ( if it ever set out finished ) , it will contain the “ country ’s premier restaurants , hotel accommodation , apartments , and business enterprise facilities . ” It may also become the tall hotel in the world , counting 3,000 to 7,665 suite ( depending on the origin , according to Wikipedia ) . I ’m sure it will always be at full capacity , even when it ’s empty . Just like the restaurant on top , with awe-inspiring views of Pyongyang soviet computer architecture and happy desperation .
