A historic city god temple located in the center of the old walled city of Fengshan. It was established around 1800. There are some interesting old stone guardians out front that might be komainu dating back to the Japanese colonial era.

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.
