Manpo (Script error: No such module "IPA".) is a city of northwestern Chagang Province, North Korea. As of 2008, it had an estimated population of 116,760. It looks across the border to the city of Ji'an, Jilin province, China.
History
Manp'o was incorporated as a city in October 1967. Earlier, in October 1949, it had been combined into a single county consisting Manpo-myon, Kosan-myon, Oegwi-myon, Iso-myon and Sijung-myon, which were split from Kanggye-gun.[2] Manpo had first been mentioned in 1424, in the Veritable Records of the Joseon Dynasty. During the Joseon Dynasty, fortresses and camps were built in this area, for which the city is now named after.[3]
Geography
Along the shores of the Yalu River, which various tributaries flow into, and the Kŏnp'o River are the small Kosan Plain and the Kŏnha Plain.
The majority of Manpo is located at a lower height than the rest of Jagang Province, though the northeast and east do have areas of higher elevation, which gradually slopes down to the much lower areas along the banks of the Yalu River. Around 75.6% of the city is covered by forests.[4]
Climate
Manpo has a humid continental climate (Köppen climate classification: Dwa).
The yearly average temperature is 6.5 °C (43.7 °F); the January average temperature, −14.4 °C (6.1 °F); and the July average temperature, 23.6 °C (74.5 °F). The yearly average rainfall is 947.8 millimetres (37.31 in), generous due to the mountainous terrain. Script error: No such module "weather box".
