One of three red-brick residences dating back to the Japanese colonial era on the main street running through Ershui, Changhua. It was built by Zheng Ding (鄭鼎), likely in the late 1910s or early 1920s, and was both his residence and the original site of Yingyuan Hospital, which operated out of this building for three decades.

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.
