A Taivoan (大武壠族) kuva (公廨) dedicated to Taizu (太祖), for a Plains Indigenous group who migrated into the mountains due to settlement pressure as Taiwan was colonized. It was rebuilt in 1994 after the developer of a nearby residential complex made brisk sales, but seemingly without much input from the local Indigenous community. Presently it resembles a Han Taiwanese land god shrine, although there is a sacred jar under the altar as one would find in a Plains Indigenous kuva. Nowadays it is formally known as Zushi Shrine (祖師祠).

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.
