Completed in 1893, Dakeng River Bridge (大坑溪橋) was originally built for the railway line connecting Keelung to Hsinchu. The Japanese authorities abandoned this line several years later, and the bridge was converted for road traffic. It is now preserved as part of the remains of the Guilunling Railway Bridges (龜崙嶺鐵道橋遺構).

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.
