You won't be allowed out of the Kaesong Folk Hotel at night and the only thing really to do is to go to the hotels small bar. They had a TV on in the corner and it seemed to be showing a war film in black and white that looked like it could be from the 1940's or 50's but in fact, when I asked one of our guides, it dated from the 1980's! Bottles of beer and rice wine are available.
