Historic brick kiln on the outer perimeter of the old city of Hengchun. Although the remains of the kiln date back to the post-war period, they were constructed on the original site of the brick and lime industry established to build the city walls in the 1870s.

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).
