A tiny Hakka old street, just over 100 meters long. Named for three streams flowing into the Dahan River, it was once a prosperous river port serving tea farmers until the construction of Shimen Reservoir lowered water levels and ended river trade. It is also known as Sankengzi Old Street (三坑子老街).

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.
