A small Inari shrine established in February 1912 in what is now Zhongshan Park (中山公園). It predated the main Shinto shrine in this park by several years. After the war it was demolished but the base was kept and converted into a pavilion and an air raid shelter.

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.
