An unusual temple complex on the highway leading into Qishan. It is easily recognized by the dinosaur-like dragon statue out front. Inside you’ll find shrines to the God of Wealth as well as several more unusual altars including one to the God of Gambling.

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.
