A government-established paper factory founded in 1969 in the Fuzhou (浮洲) area of Banqiao to provide employment for the many military veterans in the area. The facility produced cigarette paper and, from 1974, collaborated with the Central Engraving and Printing Plant (中央印製廠) on banknote paper production. The factory closed in 1999 and has since been converted into a public park (台北紙廠簡易公園) and the National Taiwan University of Arts Creative Park (台藝大文創園區).

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.
