September 3, 2026

Many people visit the horticultural exhibition house on Saeppyol Street of Pyongyang.

Some of them come here to buy ornamental plants and others want to have photos taken at the exhibition house with a beautiful indoor landscape on birthdays, holidays and wedding days.

The interior of the exhibition house with a small wooden bridge going well with fresh green plants reminds visitors of a lush garden. 

On display at the exhibition house are ornamental plants and flowers needed for urban landscaping and indoor and outdoor greening of dwelling houses and public buildings in a balanced way.

It has over 50 kinds of ornamental trees including cycad and Queensland umbrella tree, potted needle leaf trees like pine and juniper, potted broadleaf trees like maple and potted apple, lemon, grape and other fruit trees. 

Most attractive among them are potted fruit trees.

It is said that children especially like them.

Kim Kyong Il, a staff member of the exhibition house, said that seeing the landscape of fruits they could see only in greenhouses and in the right season in the countryside, children feel a strong urge to cultivate trees and pick fruits from them and some of them pester the keepers to pick fruits from the trees for them.

The exhibition house also provides kind technical services related to plant cultivation, indoor greening and landscaping at the request of the visitors.

People want very much to create a fresh natural environment, but indoor greening is not so easy as it has to produce an ornamental effect with living plants, said Kim Kyong Il. “The exhibition house introduces customers in detail how to select plant species according to the internal structures and functional features of houses and public buildings and landscape them by using walls and columns and provides related technical services for them.”
