A branch (分宮) of the famous Xingtian Temple completed in 1965 on the slopes above Zhongyang North Road. Like its sister halls, this Guandi temple was funded by Keelung coal mining baron Huang Cong (黃欉) and follows the lineage’s distinctive practice of dispensing with incense, joss paper, and donation boxes. The third hall in the group is the Sanxia Xingxiu Temple.

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.
