Damyeonjae is a hanok accommodation located in Hahoe Village, Andong. It was built in the 1980s but faithfully implemented the appearance of a traditional hanok. The chimney rising behind the yard and the tiles which line the roof are excellent enough to be considered a cultural asset, and the wood used for the beams and the cheongmaru is also very luxurious. Uniquely, it was built in a ‘c’ shape with the gate and haengnangchae moved to the edge of the yard, rather than a square shape like the traditional hanok in the Gyeongsang region. Thanks to the open view to the south, the entire Andong Hahoe Village and Hwasan Mountain can be viewed from the yard. Damyeonjae is the home of Korean actor Ryu Si-won, and his is known to have spent his childhood here. In 1999, Queen Elizabeth II of England experienced Korean culture and received a 73rd birthday award here, making it even more famous. Damyeonjae is currently operated as a hanok stay where only one group can stay each day. The kitchen and bathroom are modernly decorated to add convenience.
