This theater was constructed in 1941 by the Danei Farmers’ Association (大內農會). It shut down sometime after home television became common and is still in use as a warehouse. There isn’t much to look at, but if you’re fortunate enough to wander by when the door is open, you might observe old knob-and-tube wiring running along the ceiling.

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.
