All about the trip
Join us for a cultural tour in Andong City! Andong is considered to be the home of traditional Korean culture. It has been blessed with cultural items from virtually every period of Korean history. Experience the richness of Korea's folk culture which has been integrated into modern life. Andong has also been fostered spiritual philosophies such as Buddhism, Confucianism, and Christianity; culminating over the centuries like layers of sedimentary rock. During this tour, you will have a private vehicle, along with a licensed, professional English-speaking tour guide. Throughout the day, your guide will offer tips, provide information and handle any language barriers that may occur during the tour. On this trip, you'll visit the Buyongdae cliff, Hahoe Village, and Hahoe Mask Museum. From the top of the cliff which is about 64 meters high, you will have a birdseye view of the Hahoe Village in Andong. The name stems from the ancient history of China, meaning Lotus; the village configuration is similar to a lotus flower. Hahoe Village is well-known for its traditional houses or "hanoks." In modern times, Queen Elizabeth the II of England visited the site in 1999 and there is a plaque commemorating that special day. Another visit on this tour is the Hahoe Mask Museum, which exhibits traditional Korean masks. The museum is home to masks from all over the world and put on a vibrant display for guests.
