A long-abandoned church on the outskirts of urban Fangliao. Originally established by Huang Yadong (黃亞東) in the 1960s or 1970s, it was eventually left to the elements after severe flooding in this depressed coastal area. Nowadays it is a popular local landmark for taking photos.

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.
