Hengchun Theater has been extensively renovated since it was last screening films, but this is indeed the original structure. Originally operated by Wu Fengyuan (吳豐源) as one of three theaters in town. Although a theater opened on this site in the 1930s is it not clear whether it was completely rebuilt at some point.

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.
