A museum and a broken bridge commemorating the history of the Korean War in the 1950s remain popular tourist spots in China's border city of Dandong. Some visitors expressed hope that China's long-standing links with neighbouring North Korea would be maintained, despite the North's declared nuclear test. "The friendship of China and North Korea was consolidated during the Korean War. I hope the close friendship of the two countries can last forever," said one visiting student. China has embarked on a flurry of diplomatic activity since North Korea announced on Monday it had carried out a nuclear test. War planes, tanks and guns used in the Korean War are displayed for visitors to the museum, located in a mountain of Dandong city. Videos of historic documentaries from the period are played on television sets inside. There are large number of old photographs showing China's volunteer soldiers fighting American troops during the war. China sent more than 2.9 (m) million volunteer soldiers to North Korea during the war, according to introduction materials released by the museum. 180-thousand of them died on the battlefield, the materials said. Many older people think it should be kept as it is for future generations.
