The grave of prominent landholder Qiu Xianjia (1857–1917), whose life spanned the late Qing dynasty and early Japanese colonial eras. The grave is designed with Taiwanese Chinese sensibilities but much of the carvings represent Shōwa era styles.

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.
