The North Korean Embassy in Hanoi

A reader sends this interesting note on the DPRK Embassy in Vietnam:

I scouted out the NK embassy in Hanoi. The entire building is shuddered all the time. It’s next door to the Thai embassy. This is a building of the same design, but in much more active use. The NK embassy has no visa services or other form of public [services]. Two suits left mid-morning in a Mercedes. Otherwise, it seems to be an empty building.

Probably they don’t have the funds to staff it very well. Per the World Tourism Directory, the embassy address is:

Embassy of the D.P.R. of Korea
25 Cao Ba Quat Street
Hanoi
Vietnam
Tel: (+84-4) 8453008
Fax: (+84-4) 8231221
