Why go

Woryeonggyo Bridge spans Lake Imha in Andong, Gyeongsangbuk-do, and is one of Korea's longest wooden footbridges. The bridge stretches across calm reservoir waters and is particularly striking at dusk, when lanterns illuminate the walkway and reflect on the surface below. Its name, meaning "Moon Shadow Bridge," references the poetic sight of moonlight rippling across the lake. Visitors walk the full length at a leisurely pace, taking in forested hillsides and traditional pavilions at each end. The surrounding Andong Dam lake area offers additional walking trails and scenic rest areas, making it a practical stop for travellers exploring the region's natural landscape.
