The former north gate to the old city of Jiadong was reconstructed after a typhoon damaged the original structure. It bears a resemblance to the west gate but is constructed out of reinforced concrete. Historic stone stelae are encased in the structure of the gate.

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.
