龜山天母宮天妃廟

A small roadside temple in a factory district of Guishan on the approach to Linkou Plateau (林口台地). Among its idols is a carved figure of Chu Ke-liang (豬哥亮), the famous Taiwanese comedian and television host who perished in 2017, an unusually recent case of a person from living memory being venerated in folk religion.

I am a web application developer, photojournalist, urban explorer, and history enthusiast passionate about the open web and documenting my experiences on this planet.

I’m originally from Toronto, Canada, but spend most of my time residing in Taiwan.
