A Western-style commercial building dating back to the early 20th century in Beigang, Yunlin. The date of construction is not known for certain, but it seems likely to have been built sometime between 1912 and 1920, right next to the famous Beigang Chaotian Temple (北港朝天宮).

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.
