Explanation

On the other side of the subsidiary dam of Andong Dam, thatched houses can be sparsely seen on a hilltop. The area is practically an outdoor museum, displaying traditional houses that were moved to safety prior to the construction of Andong Dam. Two jangseung (traditional Korean totem poles) are raised at the entrance of the outdoor museum, followed by a monument inscribed with the poem of famous Andong poet and democracy activist, Lee Yuk-sa. On the monument, his most noted work “Gwangya” (Wild Plain) is carved.

Nearby attractions include Andong Museum, Lee Yuk-sa Monument, a filming site of “Taejo Wang Geon (2000)," and Andongho Lake.
