Andong
안동시 · Gyeongsangbuk-do
Andong is Korea's Confucian heartland and home to Hahoe Folk Village, a riverside aristocratic village inscribed by UNESCO in 2010 where residents still live. The Hahoe mask dance, part of Korea's UNESCO-listed talchum tradition, headlines an international mask dance festival held every autumn.

Planning a trip to Andong
Getting there
Andong is on the central rail line and reachable by train or intercity bus from Seoul. From the Andong bus terminal, a local bus toward Hahoe (roughly an hour, running about hourly) reaches the village entrance, where a free shuttle covers the last stretch.
Best season
Late September to early November is the highlight, when autumn foliage frames the riverside hanok and the international mask dance festival is held; April adds spring blossom.
Traveler tip
Hahoe buses are infrequent, so check return times before you set out; stay on until the stop nearest the village entrance rather than getting off early.
Planning notes are researched, foreign-traveler oriented summaries — confirm current transport schedules and festival dates before you travel.
