Built in 1974 and inaugurated in 1975, this cinema in Hồ Xá was a gift from the Central Government to the heroic people of the Vinh Linh Special Zone, the part of Quảng Trị Province remaining under the control of North Vietnam after the 1954 Geneva Conference. It was frequently the site of important cultural and political events but has been abandoned for more than a decade as of the 2020s.

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.
