Originally established in 1937 as Qiuliang Mountain (秋涼山), after the founder Chen Qiuliang (陳秋涼), this is arguably the oldest continually operating amusement park in Taiwan. Features many scenes and figures from Journey to the West. Now branded as the Santaoshan Forest Leisure Park (三桃山森林休閒園), perhaps because so much of it is overgrown and rundown.

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.
