A Japanese-style wooden lodge within Fushoushan Farm (福壽山農場), originally housing for farm workers. Chiang Ching-kuo (蔣經國) adopted it as his base while supervising construction of the Cross-Island Highway (中橫公路), reportedly after spending a night sleeping under a pine tree at the site and writing an essay about the experience. Now converted into a guesthouse open for public bookings, the lodge is surrounded by maples, pines, and plum trees that make it a popular autumn destination.

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.
