Bao’an Station (保安車站) was established in Rende, Tainan, in 1909, primarily to serve the transportation needs of the nearby sugar factory. It was originally named Cheluqian Station (車路墘停車場) but was renamed for a local temple in 1962. The wooden station house is more than a century old and still in use today. Despite being only a small station an average of more than 2,700 passengers disembark daily, largely because of the proximity to nearby tourist attractions such as the aforementioned sugar factory and Chimei Museum.

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.
