A small roadside shrine with many tiger idols, where the tiger god is venerated as Tianhu Dajiangjun (天虎大將軍). Several of the larger statues are anthropomorphic depictions of the deity. Very much worth a quick stop to check it out!

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.
