A military dependents’ village of approximately 72 households in the Guogang (過港) area of Nuannuan, originally built for employees of the Chinese Fisheries Corporation (中國漁業公司) after the ROC government’s retreat to Taiwan in 1949. Decades of attrition, an ageing population, and unresolved land disputes have left the settlement in an uncertain state, with most original buildings altered beyond recognition and residents gradually moving away.

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.
