Andong Gunja Village, established 600 years ago, was relocated 2 kilometers from its original site due to submergence during the construction of Andong Dam. The village's tradtional houses and pavilions were meticulously moved to preserve their historic value. Known as Gunja Village, it derives its name from a remark by the Joseon-era civil servant Jeong Gu, who noted, "There is no one in the village who is not a Gunja (gentleman)". The village is home to over 20 ancient houses, including the Hujodang Head House and Takcheongjeong Pavilion, maintained in their original state. Moreover, the village archives over 1,000 documents detailing adoption, property ownership, and labor distribution.

Bongjeongsa Temple is believed to have been built in 672 by the Great Buddist Monk Uisang. However, other documents seem to state that Neungin Daedeuk, a disciple of Monk Uisang, established the temple. During the Korean War, many documents related to the temple were destroyed, so much of the history has been lost. In 1972, while reconstruction work was being done on Geungnakjeon Hall, records were discovered stating the hall was repaired in 1363. This discovery gave concrete evidence that Geungnakjeon Hall is the oldest wooden building in the nation.
