An old theater located at 651 Trần Hưng Đạo in the former District 5. It was established as Lux Theater (Rạp Lux) and later renamed. After closing it was converted into Monaco discotheque and later repurposed as an entertainment complex under the name New 651. Today it stands derelict, awaiting redevelopment or demolition.

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.
