A small monument commemorating the Tapani Incident (噍吧哖事件) of 1915, the largest and deadliest armed uprising against Japanese colonial rule in Taiwan, led by Yu Qingfang and others. The monument is situated on a mountain ridge in Nanhua and is not easily accessible; it is unclear why this particular location was chosen.

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.
