Given that there are presumably several million people who believe in the existence of this wall, I guess it deserves a Wikipedia entry. But can anyone present credible evidence that it exists? If not, a rewrite is in order. So far all I can find are a couple of NK propaganda websites, one of which boasts a mysterious photo of a white line on a gray background. -- Visviva 14:27, 27 May 2005 (UTC)

It should be possible to get something using Google Maps using the satelite view. [1] // Liftarn

I recently torrented a documentary called "Welcome to North Korea" which had a segment on the wall. http://www.offthekuff.com/mt/archives/001704.html --Plexust 20:23, August 30, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Google

With Google Earth (and probably also with mentioned harder to use Google Maps that should have the same data) a portion of the wall can be seen in the square shaped light blue (more sharp) area along the western part of the demarcation line.

I went to the DPRK in 2004, during which time we were taken to a lookout near the DMZ to see the 'wall'. As far as I could tell, the wall was definitely there, although it is, of course, impossible to ascertain whether or not it stretches the length of the country, as claimed.
