A former residence built by the Taiwan Salt Company around 1917. It continued to serve as a salt company employee dormitory in the post-war period but was eventually abandoned. More recently it has been restored and converted into a minor tourist attraction.

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.
