Established in 1963, this was a military dependents’ village for members of the ROCAF and their families. Since it was adjacent to Lingyun No. 3 Village (凌雲三村) the entire area was collectively known as Yunpeng Community (雲鵬社區), taking one character from each name. The village was decommissioned in 2010 and demolished over the course of several years in the 2010s. Some remnants were preserved, including the pillars at the gate to the community, a water tower, and village office.

Series: Southern Taiwan Ride 2018
Dispatches from a weeklong bicycle trip around southern Taiwan in late 2018. I began the ride in Tainan, crossed into Qishan, headed into the mountainous interior as far as Liugui, did a loop through Pingtung, and finished around Zuoying, visiting the sites of nearly 25 old movie theaters. Many entries remain to be added; this series is far from over.

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.
