Andong Hahoe Folk Village: what to see and do
A living Joseon-era village of thatched and tile-roofed homes, wrapped by a bend of the Nakdong River.
Known for
- Thatched-roof houses and old manor homes
- Buyongdae Cliff over the river
- Hahoe mask dance and mask museum
What to do
Walk the village lanes, cross the river by boat or path to Buyongdae Cliff for the view, and see the mask dance if a show is on.
Tip: Buses from Andong are infrequent, so check the return time before you go. People still live here, so keep voices low.
From Seoul: KTX-Eum 2 h to Andong Station, then bus about 50 min
