Originally established as Zhongyang Theater (中央劇場) in 1937, likely more of a venue for traditional opera and performance, initially with a capacity of 950. It was renamed after the war and was likely rebuilt into a three-story building with a capacity of 1,600 sometime in the 1960s. It eventually became known for screening Shaw Brothers films. Demolished long ago.

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.
