How can i locate Andromeda galaxy to see by naked eye

In summary, locating the Andromeda galaxy to see with the naked eye involves finding the constellation of Andromeda in the night sky, which is best seen in the fall. From there, look for the bright star Alpheratz and trace a line to the left, which will lead to the Andromeda galaxy. It may appear as a hazy, elongated patch of light and is best viewed in areas with low light pollution. With the correct conditions and location, the Andromeda galaxy can be a spectacular sight to behold without the use of any equipment.

Welcome Aji to New member Introductions ONLY.

I suggest that you post your question in the appropriate forum, perhaps Astronomy.
