A historic temple in western Puli, near the entrance to the city. It is also home to several historic relics, including a pair of stone lions originally guarding the yamen in Pulishe City, and later appearing at both Shinto shrines constructed around Hutoushan in the Japanese colonial era, and another pair salvaged from the former Puli Martial Arts Hall (埔里武德殿). In addition, several stone lanterns from those same Shinto shrines can be found here.

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.
