Tiaoshi Bus Stop (跳石車站) - Spectral Codex

Tiaoshi Coast (跳石海岸) is a forlorn stretch of boulder-strewn shoreline in Jinshan along the highway to Shimen on the northern coast of Taiwan. A scenic bus stop at this desolate location became social media famous in the mid-2020s and is now a popular destination for tourists and content creators. This, in turn, has supported a small cluster of cafés and roadside businesses along this otherwise remote section of Tamjin Highway (淡金公路).

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.
