施家朴子古厝

The former home of midwife Shi Zhou Jingjiang (施周靜江, 1922–2017), who reputedly delivered over ten thousand babies over a long career spanning the Japanese colonial era and post-war period. The residence featured a rare home maternity room. Despite a heritage application by descendants, it was demolished in 2022 and a modern apartment block soon sprouted in its place.

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.
