Huanggang (磺港漁港), literally “Sulfur Port”, was developed by the Spanish when they undertook sulfur mining at Dayoukeng and other sites along the margins of the Datun Volcano Group. The port was expanded by the Japanese and an exchange was built to manage trade in this important commodity. Its post-war history is unknown but as of the mid-2020s only traces remain.

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.
