A dual-purpose aqueduct bridge (渡槽橋) over Duzitou Creek (渡仔頭溪), built in 1922 as part of the Jianan irrigation system (嘉南大圳). Originally fitted with railway tracks for transporting sand and gravel to the Wushantou Reservoir (烏山頭水庫) dam site, the tracks were replaced with a reinforced concrete road surface in 1934. The 80 meter plate girder steel bridge carries road traffic above and irrigation water below.

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.
