On April 21, the queen will fly into Andong,Kyongsang - pukto, a local city known for its well-preserved traditional villages.

``The queen needs to travel outside the capital city to tour different regions in Korea. Andong presents a strong contrast because it is a rural area,'' the British spokes woman said.

During a tour of Andong's Hahoe Village, the queen is expected to visit the Chunghyodang family house and the Tamyonjae village center.

She will also visit a wholesale agricultural products market in Andong to get a sense of    the modernized   rural economy, the spokeswoman said.

After her visit to Andong,   the queen will tour Pusok Buddhist Temple  in  Yongju   where  she will  see Muryangsujon, the oldest wooden building in Korea, before returning to Seoul for a tea party with Korean and British parliamentarians.
