Dongnan Cement Factory (東南水泥高雄廠) - Spectral Codex

An old cement factory established next to Banpingshan (半屏山) in 1956. Along with the Jiantai Cement Factory (建台水泥廠) to the southwest it mined much of the limestone mountainside over the many decades before being decommissioned in the 2000s or early 2010s. While the plant was being progressive dismantled it attracted the interest of the urban exploration community. As of 2025 it would appear as if most of the original site has been razed to the ground.

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.
