This simple building was a former canteen established in the Japanese colonial era. Converted for use as a hotel in the 1950s as Guanshan entered its most prosperous phase. Located across from the old railway station.

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.
