The interior of the station displays the original Japanese name of the settlement.

An unmanned railway station on the Taitung Line (台東線) originally established as Yamato Railway Station (大和停車場) in 1918 to serve a Japanese colonial settlement founded for sugarcane cultivation. The village of Yamato (大和) was renamed Dàfù (大富) after the war and the station followed suit. Downgraded from a staffed third-class station to an unmanned halt in 1986, it is among the least-trafficked stations on the entire railway network, averaging around 13 passengers per day.

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.
