A faded commercial strip at the crossroads of County Highways 172 and 161 in the Daliao (大寮) settlement of Budai. The area boomed in the early post-war decades around the now-vanished Yongle Theater, with shophouses, an open-air market, and a string of brothels serving traders from the nearby port. The market relocated in 1963 and television eroded the theater’s draw, ushering in decades of decline. A handful of old houses with neo-Baroque façades survive along the road.

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.
