A culture created from previous eras and a tolerant acceptance of religious preferences makes up Andong's fabric. It is an old custom for the people of Andong, known for their humanistic values, to rapidly respond to cultural changes and welcome other cultures.

Andong's numerous tangible and intangible resources make it a museum without a roof. World Heritages with universal values, such as Hahoe Village, Dosan Seowon, and Byeongsan Seowon, are located in Andong.

The city's rich historical and cultural past is seen in the Confucian Printing Woodblocks registered in the Memory of the World Programme.

We are committed to reinterpreting the past from today's perspective and creating a future culture imbued with the spirit of the past and values of modern times, moving toward "A Greater Andong! A Greater Future!“

The warmth of the old and the delight of the new can be found in every corner of Andong and are sure to touch your heart and provide precious memories of your visit.
