Andong
is the epitome of the cliche "both old and new."

Home, a common man's neighborhood restaurant with uncommonly good food.
Jaebiweon,

the Jaebiweon website. (For English, click on "Language"

Naeseongcheon,
just north of the city.
Seosan
Seoweon. A seowon is "a private Korean Confucian academy offering
instruction in the classics and honouring the sages with regular memorial
rites." (from Wikipedia's page on Dosan
Seowon.) Around Andong there are about nine seowon; Seosan Seowon
is a relatively minor one. They do not teach Confucian studies anymore,
but are well-maintained with government funding.

passed it by in the 1970s..
