안동하회마을
Hahoe is a ticketed UNESCO village that is still home to residents, not an open-air film set. Seasonal admission cutoffs, the free internal shuttle and separately scheduled mask-dance performances matter, while private houses, stays, food businesses and special night events keep their own access rules.

The listed winter operation ends at 5:00 PM. Darkness and cold reduce the usefulness of river and village walking even when a special event runs later.
The 2026 notice lists Saturday-Sunday in January-February and Tuesday-Sunday in March-December. Venue, capacity and cancellation can change, so recheck the current notice.
