Built in 1914 adjacent to a police garrison established to oversee timber and camphor production in Tayal territory. Constructed from local stone with timber trusses, a galvanized iron roof, and an elevated wooden floor for ammunition storage. Likely the sole surviving Japanese colonial era armory in Taoyuan, registered as a historic building in 2019.

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.
