Stone buddha No. 56 from the Taipei Shikoku Pilgrimage (台北四國八十八所靈場), depicting Kṣitigarbha (地藏菩薩) and originally associated with Taisan-ji (泰山寺). It rests in a modest shelter around 20 meters up a small trail next to the tomb of General Hu Zongnan (胡宗南將軍墓). Beware spiders on the path; it isn’t often visited!

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.
