Unlike the DMZ, civilians are allowed to live and work in this zone, but access is strictly controlled by the military. Visitors entering the CCZ must pass through checkpoints and are usually required to join authorized tours. Photography and movement can be limited depending on security rules. Interestingly, because human activity is restricted, the area has become an important ecological zone with well-preserved nature and wildlife. At the same time, it remains a powerful reminder of the ongoing division of Korea and the need for peace.
