Sunseong Susang-gil Waterway is a 1-kilometer-long floating pathway that connects Sunseonghyeon Culture Complex with Andong Lakeside Park. Because the pathway floats on the water, it rocks with each step one takes, creating the feeling of truly walking on water. At the halfway point of the waterway is an exhibition of black-and-white photos and materials from Yean Elementary School, lost to the formation of the lake following the construction of Andong Dam in 1974.

Dojeong Seowon in Yecheon, Gyeongsangbuk-do, was built to honor Yakpo Jeong Tak, who saved the life of the famous Admiral Yi Sunshin back in the 1500s. Now a hanok stay, it has four guest rooms, including Gangdang, once used as a lecture hall by Joseon scholars; a pavilion called Eup-hojeong; and Dongjae and Seojae, which were once dormitories.

Standing on the 2nd floor of the pavilion brings one to the view of the Naeseongcheon Stream flowing in an arc around the mountain.
