Golden era theater established in 1965 on the third floor of the East Market Building (東市場樓). It closed down in 1971 and was converted into a hotel of the same name, Tianrong Hotel (天榮旅社), the ruins of which were still visible in the late 2010s. A sign for the old theater was also visible at ground level in the market until around 2021, but it seems to be gone now.

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.
