Established in 1793, this temple has long been a meeting place and center of activity for the surrounding community in Caotun, Nantou. The actual structure of the temple has been rebuilt many times over the centuries, most recently in 1977.

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.
