Wanguo Theater (萬國戲院) is situated north side of Erlin and opened around 1961. It was located immediately across from the long-vanished Zhongyang Theater, established in 1954, which created a sense of competition on this street. After closing in the early 1980s it was converted into an electronic gaming center, a PXmart (全聯福利中心), and most recently Your Chance Pharmacy (佑全保健藥妝). The original façade is invisible from the street and the bulk of the theater is inaccessible.

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.
