US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un have arrived in Singapore for their historic summit.
Trump flew in aboard Air Force One, a few hours after Kim touched down with his entourage.
Their meeting - the first between a leader from the North and a sitting US president - will take place on Tuesday on the resort island of Sentosa.
Trump has described it as a "one-time shot" at peace and said the two were in "unknown territory".
The US hopes the summit will kick-start a process that eventually sees Kim give up nuclear weapons.
The two leaders have had an extraordinary up-and-down relationship over the past 18 months, trading insults and threatening war before abruptly changing tack and moving towards a face-to-face meeting.
Kim met Singapore's Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong after he arrived.
Trump is also due to meet Lee before the summit begins.
