Kangwon Province, North Korea
In 1895, Kangwŏn was replaced by the Districts of Chuncheon (Chuncheon-bu; 춘천부; 春川府) in the west and Gangneung (Gangneung-bu; 강릉부; 江陵府) in the east.Although Wonju rejoined Kangwŏn province, the provincial capital was moved to Chuncheon.[2] The DPRK Nature Conservation Union is trying to preserve mixed forests of pine and broad-leaf trees.[2] The DPRK Cabinet-level decision has banned animal grazing and collecting plant resources and other acts of damaging the environment.[2] Kangwŏn Province is divided into two cities (si), one special administrative region, and 15 counties (kun).
