In Dongbu-dong, there is a 8.35 meters (27 4/10 feet) high brick pagoda from the Unified Silla Kingdom Period (AD 654-935). Each brick is 27.5 cm (10 4/5 inches) long, 6 cm (2 1/3 inches) thick and 12.5 cm wide (4 9/10 inches). In the past, it was 7 stories high. In 1598, during the Japanese Invasion of Korea, the top motif was destroyed and the structure was further damaged during the Korean War. The pagoda was repaired in 1962. Rumour has it that the pagoda was once located inside the old Beomnimsa Temple. The Dangganjiju, which is located 5 meters west from the pagoda, supports this story. One can see the small place to keep sculptures of the god on each floor.
By looking at these with the tiled roof, it is possible to see what style was fashionable. On the second story from the southern viewpoint, one can see the beautiful remnants of the In Wang-sang statue. It is conveniently located on the left side of an open space at the end of the parking lot at Andong Train Station.

In the 1830s, there were many fifth-day markets in Andong, operating in different neighborhoods on different days. Among these many markets, the market opening on days ending in 2 and 7 at Bunae saw great success in 1909, selling a range of products from fresh produce to livestock, fish, and local specialties such as ramie cloth and Andong soju. It was combined with the Sindang Market in 1963 to become a permanent market when Andong was upgraded from a county to a city. Because of it's long history, this market is also referred to as Andong Gu Market (Old Market), and it is the best place to visit to experience all that a traditional Korean market has to offer.

This restaurant specializes in jjimdak, or braised chicken, located in Andong Jjimdak Alley within the Andong Gu Market (Old Andong Market). The signature menu here is the braised aged kimchi and chicken. Aged kimchi here refers to cabbage kimchi aged additionally for more than 6 months in low temperatures, which imbues the kimchi with tangier and richer flavors. It is eaten as-is as a side dish, but many Koreans use it as a flavoring in meat dishes as well. Braised chicken is a dish that already integrates vegetables and glass noodles, and the addition of aged kimchi elevates the dish even more with its unique Korean flavor. Andong braised chicken served in this restaurant tends to be less spicy than those served in other restaurants and is braised to perfection, so even those who do not enjoy spicy food can have a great meal at this restaurant.
