Completed in 1921, this large assembly hall has survived to the present day. Since reopening after a long (and mildly controversial) restoration it now operates as the National Hsinchu Living Arts Center (國立新竹生活美學館).

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.
