Not much remains of this old coal mine established around 1963 in Nanzhuang, Miaoli. It operated for slightly more than a decade. Nowadays the reinforced concrete entrance to a ventilation shaft for the mine is faintly discernable next to the roadside, and you might be able to find a few similar relics scattered along the hillside, but not much more.

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.
