Established in 1927 by Yensuikō Seito (鹽水港製糖株式會社) and formerly known as Hengchun Sugar Refinery (恆春製糖所). It was heavily damaged in World War 2 and only resumed operations in 1949. With sugar production controlled by the state-owned enterprise Taiwan Sugar Corporation, it was closed permanently in 1958, with its equipment transferred to Nanzhou Sugar Factory. The site was later used by a rope factory before being demolished to make way for the Hengchun Holiday Night Market.

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.
