Built in 1902 by Huang Xunren (黃遜人) of the local Huang family, this is a rare two-storey residential-commercial courtyard compound formerly used as a warehouse for exporting sugar and rice to China and Japan. Prior to the harbor silting up ships would sail all the way to the compound’s doorstep. Despite interest in preserving the site it has fallen into disrepair.

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.
