Old Guanyin Railway Tunnel (舊觀音隧道) - Spectral Codex

A former railway tunnel cutting through the mountains of eastern Taiwan for 13 kilometers. It was abolished in 2003 with the opening of the New Guanyin Tunnel (新觀音隧道). There were plans to convert it into a bikeway but it was eventually used as an access corridor for additional construction work along this section of the Suhua Highway.

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.
