A set of three Japanese colonial era graves for several members of the Zhang family in Houli. All have ornate stone carvings and demonstrate the wealth and prestige of the deceased. The site is not well-maintained and at least one of the graves might be inaccessible due to the extent of the overgrowth.

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.
