A small-scale sugar factory used to operate on the banks of the river just outside the main settlement in Jiaxian. Established in 1907, it used a water wheel to drive the machinery. It struggled to operate throughout the early post-war era and eventually closed in 1963. The ruins of the factory were washed away by the floods brought on by Typhoon Morakot in 2009.

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.
