A partly reconstructed Shinto shrine on the outskirts of the former Hayashida Immigrant Village (林田移民村) in the Huadong Valley. Originally founded in April 1915 and known as Hayashida-jinja in Japanese and classified as unranked (無格社). Not related to Lintianshan, the forestry settlement to the southwest—that name came later.

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.
