From September 21 to October 2, 1986, Zhao Puchu paid a good-will visit to the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. From November 24 to 30 of the same year, he also visited Kathmandu, Nepal. These poems, written to record the two trips, help readers understand China's foreign policy of the time. Zhao was eighty years old when he created these elegant works.
