A Taivoan (大武壠族) kuva (公廨), a Plains Indigenous shrine for a group who migrated into the mountains due to settlement pressure as Taiwan was colonized. This shrine is the oldest on record, having been renovated around 1970. As with most such shrines there are small vessels for the veneration of Alizu (阿立祖).

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.
