A historic private school established in 1831 in Nantou City. It has undergone many changes over the years, most recently when it was heavily damaged in the 921 Earthquake and again restored in 2002. It is home to several cultural treasures, among them a rare example of a ritual paper incinerator in Nantou County, which is now located in the forecourt.

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.
