Hyanggyo Local Confucian Schools were government-run provincial schools established separately during Korea's Goryeo and Joseon periods. It was a place for achieving success in government or for holding ancestral rites. Cheongdohyanggyo Local Confucian School was first built in 1568 in the middle of the Joseon dynasty and has been relocated twice. This location is known as the burial place for Toegye Yi Hwang, the face of Korea's 1,000 won note and a historical figure who established Confucianism in Korea. One can see the shape of a tile-roofed hanok, and flowers and trees surround it, making it a nice place to stroll.

It's a cafe built on the first floor of an old house that gives the sense of being transported back to the 1970s and 1980s when one steps inside. The tables and chairs are made from wood that appears to have aged well, and in a corner, a display of retro-concept tea sets, glasses, and candle holders catches the eye.
The signature drinks are Esuppänner and La La Land. Esupänner is a coffee drink with espresso, roasted grain powder (glutinous rice, barley rice, etc.), and topped with cream. La La Land is a lemon and grapefruit tea inspired by the movie "La La Land (2016)," boasting mysterious colors of purple and yellow. Tea, juice, and smoothies are also available, as well as brownies and scones for dessert. It is located near Cheongdoeupseong Walled Town, so it is an excellent place to stop by on the way.

Stone ice storage was a type of building used to store ice in the past. Some of them are preserved today in Korea, including Gyeongju, Andong, and Cheongdo in the Gyeongsang-do area. The Cheongdo Stone Ice Storage was constructed during the Joseon dynasty, and now just part of the ceiling remains, allowing visitors to see inside.
As a building used to store ice, it was built in the form of a warehouse dug into the ground. While looking around and observing the interior is possible, visitors may not enter the icehouse for safety reasons.
