A five-bay sanheyuan in the village of Linzitou (林子頭) on the rural outskirts of Douliu, Yunlin. The compound is distinguished by Baroque-style washout stone gables on the wing buildings, each bearing the Huang (黃) surname, and well-preserved interior murals and calligraphy in the main hall. An unusual feature is a built-in rice granary behind one of the wings with a metal chute for dispensing grain.

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.
