A small Shinto shrine established in an Indigenous village in Heping District, Taichung. It was built in 1934 and only some remnants of the original landscaping remain somewhere on the outskirts of the village. Although the precise location is elusive, it is supposedly somewhere in the vicinity of Shuangqi Maifuping Trail (雙崎埋伏坪登山步道) at the back of the village.

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.
