Xi Jinping’s guesthouse in Pyongyang possibly new rapidly-built mansion complex

"Kumsusan Guesthouse" named in Chinese media may be new buildings across Kumsusan Palace of the Sun

Chinese media on Thursday afternoon named the guesthouse in Pyongyang where Chinese President Xi Jinping will be staying as the "Kumsusan Guesthouse," a previously unknown name and different than the location used to host other heads of state and VIP guests in the past year.

Xinhua reported in the afternoon that after arriving around noon Xi was driven from the airport through Ryomyong Street to a ceremony at the Kumsusan Palace of the Sun before arriving at the guesthouse.
