The 135th anniversary of May Day, the international holiday of working people of the whole world, was significantly celebrated in different parts of the DPRK.

The Kumsusan Palace of the Sun, the sacred temple of Juche, where President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il lie in state, was full of boundless reverence.

Many people gathered in the square of the palace and recollected the immortal exploits and great personality of Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il , who led the revolution and construction along the road of brilliant victory.

Officials and working people visited the statues of the great leaders and mosaic murals of the peerlessly great men on Mansu Hill and in different parts of the country to lay flower baskets, bouquets and flowers before paying tribute to them.

Officials of Party and power organs across the country significantly celebrated May Day together with working people.

Officials visited the production sites seething with the drive for increased production and congratulated the working class on their indomitable struggle to provide a springboard for the comprehensive national rejuvenation with sincere efforts and on their innovative successes.

Various sports and amusement games took place at the Kim Chaek Iron and Steel Complex, the Hungnam Fertilizer Complex, the Chonnaeri Cement Factory, the Sinuiju Cosmetics Factory, the Haeju Tractor Parts Factory and other industrial establishments across the country.

Working people's organizations in North Phyongan Province, Nampho Municipality and other local areas held meetings with persons of merit of the preceding generations and exemplary persons of virtue and meetings to follow their example.

Colourful performances were given at theatres and outdoor stages in the capital city to add to the festive mood.

The festive mood was revved up with art performances given in North Hwanghae, Jagang, Kangwon and South Hamgyong provinces and other parts of the country.

Many people spent a pleasant time at the Central Zoo, the Natural History Museum, the Munsu Water Park, a riding club in Hamhung and other cultural recreation grounds.

Public catering units in Pyongyang and provinces including Okryu Restaurant, Chongnyu Restaurant, and Kyongam Restaurant in Sariwon and Songdowon Restaurant in Wonsan offered diverse holiday services.
