STORYLINE
The body of North Korea's long-time ruler Kim Jong Il was laid out in a memorial palace in the capital Pyongyang, on Tuesday.
Footage filmed by APTN North Korea showed the glass coffin holding Kim's body, surrounded by blossoms of his namesake flowers, red "kimjongilia".
He was covered with a red blanket, his head placed on a white pillow.
Indicating that the leadership transition in the communist dynasty is on track, Kim Jong Un - Kim's youngest known son and successor - visited the body with top military and Workers' Party officials, as the country mourned.
The coffin was presented in a room of the Kumsusan Memorial Palace, a mausoleum where the embalmed body of Kim Jong Il's l father, national founder Kim Il Sung, has been on display in a glass sarcophagus since his death in 1994.
Kim Jong Un entered the room to view his father as solemn music played, APTN North Korea showed.
He observed a moment of silence, and then circled the bier, followed by other officials.
Kim Jong Il died of a massive heart attack on Saturday caused by overwork and stress, according to the North's media.
He was 69 - though some experts question the official accounts of his birth date and location.
Kim's state funeral is to be held at the Kamsusan Memorial Palace on Dec. 28.
North Korean officials say they will not invite foreign delegations and will allow no entertainment during the mourning period.
