Pyongyang, June 22 (KCNA) -- An endless stream of people are visiting the Ryongpho Revolutionary Site in Popdong County, Kangwon Province on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the Korean people's victory in the great Fatherland Liberation War.

More than 50,000 service personnel and people from all walks of life and school youth and children visited it this year.

The revolutionary site is a historic place which President Kim Il Sung visited in April, Juche 40 (1951) when the war was in its height, personally unrolled an operational plan for defending the east coastal areas, met with commanding officers and model combatants of the combined unit of the Korean People's Army to encourage them to perform new feats.
