Standing at 2,744 meters with 16 peaks, Mount Paektu was approved as a UNESCO Global Geopark on April 10 by the UNESCO Executive Board. The designation aims to preserve and manage areas of significant geological value. Last year, China registered the Chinese portion of the mountain as the “Changbaishan UNESCO Global Geopark.” With the recent inclusion of the North Korean side, the entirety of Mount Paektu is now recognized as a UNESCO Global Geopark.
