ABC News Online: North Korea's Kim Jong-un makes state visit to China, his third in recent months
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has landed in Beijing, in his first visit to China since his historic meeting with US President Donald Trump.
In a rare move, China's Government confirmed Mr Kim's two-day visit shortly after he touched down.
Previously Beijing has waited for him to leave the country before confirming his visits.
Security was tight at the Beijing airport where paramilitary police prevented journalists from shooting photos. A motorcade including sedans, minibuses, motorcycles and a stretch limo with a golden emblem was seen leaving the airport. The vehicles did not appear to be carrying flags.
Roads near the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, where senior Chinese officials meet with visiting leaders, were being closed and a motorcade with motorcycle escorts was seen heading into the compound.
