This Yonhap file photo shows the Seonjuk Bridge in the ancient city of Kaesong in North Korea. The city bordering South Korea and home to an inter-Korean industrial complex is highly likely to be designated as a UNESCO World Heritage at the 37th session of the World Heritage Committee set for June 16-27 in Phnom Penh and Siem Reap-Angkor, Cambodia. On May 13, 2013, UNESCO unveiled a report of the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS) on an on-site ICOMOS inspection of the town. The report recommended the designation of the city as a World Heritage. Kaesong was the capital of Korea's Goryeo Dynasty (918-1392). (Yonhap)
