A pair of small farming villages in rural Tainan remade with paintings over many of the now-abandoned buildings. It is promoted as a “slow travel” destination in the Tainan back country. A tank made entirely out of bamboo was previously on display in front of the village’s Zhongshan Hall (中山堂).

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.
