Former radiotelegraph receiver complex established in 1934 by the International Telecommunications Company in Guanyin, Taoyuan. After the war it was turned over to what became Chunghwa Telecom. Whereas the transmission station in Zhongli is fairly well-preserved, much of this site is in ruins. There are also remnants of an old Shinto shrine in the area, probably just a small stone pedestal, but the location is unclear.

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.
