A former elementary school campus built in 1957 for children of lumberjacks working in nearby Taipingshan. It was abandoned in the 1970s as the industry began to unwind, but the original gate and several buildings still exist. It is apparently a one hour trek from the nearest road, and you may need to cross a river since the original road was probably washed out decades ago. Amazingly the site was also recognized for its heritage value and is now protected.

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).
