Andong is a city in South Korea and the capital of North Gyeongsang Province. Andong is known as a centre of culture and folk traditions. The Hahoe Folk Village is perhaps the most notable folk village in South Korea. This village was listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage site in 2010.
This was a site still missing in my collection.
Andong Hahoe Village has preserved the housing architecture and the village structure of the Joseon dynasty. Moreover, the village was not artificially created; there are people who actually live there.
Because the village is surrounded by mountains and water, it had never been invaded. This is the reason why these houses still remain in their original structures. - in: https://www.asia-planet.net/korea/andong-si.htm
