A former joint logistics military dependents’ village of approximately 137 households situated next to Ximen Experimental Elementary School (西門西門實驗小學) in Anping, Tainan. The nearby Salt Office was converted into a rubber factory, the primary employer of the village. Initial accommodation was canvas tents, later upgraded through bamboo and tile-roofed structures to largely self-funded townhouses in the 1980s. In the mid-2000s it was swept up in a nation-wide urban renewal program and the entire village was demolished around 2008, its occupants relocated to more modern housing elsewhere.

I am a web application developer, photojournalist, urban explorer, and history enthusiast passionate about the open web and documenting my experiences on this planet. This project was founded in the early 2010s and has evolved into a sort of personal Wikipedia of places that interest me (and often the photographs I’ve taken there). I’m originally from Toronto, Canada, but spend most of my time residing in Taiwan.
