A tank tunnel at Niujiaoling (牛角嶺) in Nangan, Matsu, enlarged by the army from a natural cave and completed in 1974 on the 88th birthday of Chiang Kai-shek, for whom it was named. Since 1992 the Matsu Distillery (馬祖酒廠) has used its 273 meters of granite passages, which hold steady at 15–20°C year round, to age kaoliang and other liquors in jars and vats.

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.
