Originally established in 1921, this shrine was dedicated to the Shinto god of learning. The surrounding district was renamed Tenjin-chō (天神町) in 1931 in honor of the shrine. In September 1934 it was relocated to a hillside near present-day Mingchuan Junior High School (銘傳國中). The shrine was destroyed after the war and replaced by Nanling Temple (南靈宮). Nothing remains of the original shrine.

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.
