Established in the late Japanese colonial era, this coal mining operation in Anle, Keelung, ceased around 1982. Two pit entrances can still be found at the site, but they are heavily overgrown, partly collapsed, and located fairly deep into the mountains. The nearest reference point is Nan Kuang Psychiatric Hospital (南光神經精神科醫院).
Warning: this location is abandoned, hazardous, or otherwise neglected and may be unsafe and even dangerous! Exercise appropriate precautions when visiting.

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.
