Pyongyang Heliport Facility

Pyongyang Heliport Facility (ICAO:ZKKK) is a large heliport located next to the Taedong River in Pyongyang, North Korea.
Early years.
Before the construction of the current heliport a smaller heliport sat roughly 100 m from the heliport's current site, as recently as early 2014.<ref name="Google Earth Satellite Imagery of Pyongyang 04/14/2014"></ref> This site was much smaller the current site and although it is not known exactly when the original heliport was constructed, it had been on the site since at least the year 2000.<ref name="Google Earth Satellite Imagery of Pyongyang from 6/13/2000"></ref>
Current heliport.
Construction.
Construction began on the current heliport, roughly 100m from the previous one, in late 2014, with the site being usable from mid-2015 and completely finished by late 2015.<ref name="Google Earth Satellite Imagery of Pyongyang from10/27/2014 to 8/7/2015"></ref>
Design.
The current heliport has a much larger runway, than the previous one, measuring approximately 800 meters in length, which is long enough to accommodate many light aircraft, which have been seen to visit the site and also the heliport has the notable feature of a large walled compound, 360 meters in length, featuring a football pitch and a basketball court, added in October 2015.<ref name="Google Earth Satellite Imagery of Pyongyang from 10/27/2015"></ref>
