Andong Hahoe Folk Village

A Timeless Village - The Aesthetics of Slowness - Serene Walking Paths

The main reason to visit Hahoe Village is to experience the serene atmosphere that embodies the 'aesthetics of slowness.' As you leisurely stroll through the village's alleys, you'll encounter traditional Korean houses (hanok) with rich histories, such as the Okyeonjeongsa Pavilion of Seoae Ryu Seong-ryong and the Yangjindang House of Gyeomam Ryu Un-ryong, as well as charming thatched-roof houses, all of which unfold like a picturesque scene. The earthen-walled alleys and neatly maintained courtyards are still home to residents, offering a unique opportunity to glimpse the lifestyle of the Joseon Dynasty, rather than merely observing a historical site. Since the village is quite expansive and takes over two hours to explore fully, renting an electric cart can add a fun twist to your visit.
