The original site of a district shrine (鄉社) established in Qingshui in November 1937. Almost everything is gone except the komainu (stone guardian lions) and the long stairs leading up from the town below. Next to the visiting path one will find Qingshui Earthquake Monument. Known as Kiyomizu-jinja in the original Japanese.

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.
