Ryugyong's construction has recently continued and looks more modern

The partial reconstruction of Ryugyong appears to be going good after it was found that an Egyptian telecoms company was investing in finishing the Rygyong Hotel.

Ryugyong was under intensive construction for years in the early 90’s but construction stopped when North Korea’s economy crashed with the collapse of the Soviet Union and around the time of the great famine.

However, now, Ryugyong appears to look modernised and construction continues.

Pictures from North Korea show at least one side has been glass panelled.

The top part of the hotel will house the revolving restaurant and the very top will most likely house the telecoms mast.
