A small temple in Douliu, Yunlin, dedicated to the folk hero Liao Tianding (廖添丁), mythologized as the Robin Hood of Taiwan, who defied Japanese colonial rule and was killed in Bali in 1909. Local devotees invited a statue from the primary temple in Bali to establish this southern branch. The temple hosts an annual street parade and carnival in his honour.

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.
