Established around 1935 by local coal mining baron Zhou Diyuan (周垤源), this was likely a venue for traditional performance with occasional film screenings. The theater stood at the foot of Nuannuan Old Street (暖暖老街), just beyond the level crossing next to the riverbank. No post-war records have been found and the building no longer exists. Previously known as Dandan-za (暖暖座) and Dandan-gekijō (暖暖劇場) in Japanese.

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.
