Qingjing Guesthouse (清境山莊) - Spectral Codex

A modest red brick, black-tiled compound at the rear of the Qingjing Farm Headquarters (清境農場場部) compound consisting of three single-storey buildings. The central unit served as Chiang Kai-shek’s quarters with the flanking buildings housing security personnel. Chiang visited the farm at least once, in 1963, to inspect the settlement of Yunnanese guerrilla veterans. The guesthouse has since been converted into staff housing for the Veterans Affairs Council, with only a fireplace and a few decorative items remaining from the original furnishings. A bronze bust of CKS stands in the parking lot in front of the headquarters.

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.
