The itinerary exploring Goguryeo history is also notable. Visitors can see the Gwanggaeto Stele honoring King Gwanggaeto the Great’s achievements, Janggun Tomb, a representative stone mound tomb of Goguryeo, and the site of Gungnae Fortress, the second capital of Goguryeo. The northern route allows visitors to ascend Baekdu Mountain’s Heaven Lake and take a cruise on the Yalu River to view North Korea across the river. The Ivy League exploration package, which attracted attention last year, is newly offered with an upgraded composition. '12 Days of Dreams and Hopes at the Ivy League' uses Air Premia’s Incheon?New York route and includes campus tours of Ivy League universities such as Harvard, Yale, University of Pennsylvania, Princeton, and Columbia. Among these, Yale and Princeton offer campus tours with current students and the chance to taste school meals at campus cafeterias.
