Completed in 1934, this building housed a music academy for beiguan (北管), a traditional form of Chinese music localized to Taiwan during the Qing dynasty era. The academy operated until 1994 after which it fell into disrepair. In 2012 it was recognized for its heritage value and the building was restored by 2020.

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.
