An important coastal port near Mailiao, Yunlin, in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. It was destroyed by a flood and no traces remain. Nowadays a lone monument reading Pioneer Mazu (開山媽祖) stands here, commemorating the role of the Goddess of the Sea in developing the area.

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.
