板门店（Panmunjeom）位于首尔以北50公里、开城以东10公里处，是非武装地带(demilitarized zone)中南北韩军事分界线上的共同警备区域。自1951年10月25日南北韩双方代表签订停战协议以来，板门店成为世界关注的焦点。根据1951年签署的停战协议，四方直线距离不过800米的板门店由联合国驻军同北韩军队共同守备。
自1971年9月20日南北韩红十字会在板门店举行会晤以来，板门店不仅是军事停战委员会的协议场所，也成为南北双方交流互通的渠道。
象征着南北对立的板门店是非武装地带内南北双方唯一能够进行对话交流的地方，担负着连接南北双方的桥梁作用。
* 旅游贴士
板门店位于军事区内，只能随国家指定旅行社的旅行团前往参观、游览。
Panmunjeom is located in the demilitarized zone, 50 km north from Seoul and 10 km east from the city of Gaeseong.
This area is most notably known for the peace talks that were held here on October 25, 1951 and was designated as the Joint Security Area on July 27, 1953 when the armistice agreement was signed.
Once used as a management office, Panmunjeom has been used as now a conference room since the Red Cross held an international conference here on September 20, 1971.
It is the only place where North Koreans and South Koreans can come in contact on a daily basis and make efforts towards the peace of Korea.
