A scenic rural road officially named Jinxin 3rd Road (錦新三號道路), made famous by a Mr. Brown Coffee commercial and later a Takeshi Kaneshiro EVA Air advertisement. Features the Takeshi Kaneshiro Tree (金城武樹), a Chinese pistache (黄連木) that fell during Typhoon Matmo in 2014 and was replanted. The surrounding 175-hectare area was designated as the Chishang Xinkaiyuan Old Field Cultural Landscape (池上新開園老田區文化景觀) in 2014 to protect the pastoral scenery from tourism pressure.

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.
