Yuanshan Station Railway Staff Dormitories (鐵路局北淡線圓山站宿舍) - Spectral Codex
鐵路局北淡線圓山站宿舍

A wooden single-storey Japanese dormitory built around 1900 for the stationmaster of Yuanshan Station on the Tamsui railway line (北淡線), and one of the few structures from that line still standing. It has weatherboard and wattle-and-daub (編竹夾泥) walls beneath a Japanese black-tile roof. Registered as a historic building in 2010, it sat vacant on Jiuquan Street in Datong, Taipei, before being rented out as a Japanese oden restaurant in the mid-2020s.

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.
