The exterior of the theater during the pandemic.

Established in 1932 as Shōhei-za (昇平座), originally with a capacity of 600. It changed names after the war and was extensively renovated in the late 1950s. The theater closed in 1986 and the roof of the building was ripped off in a typhoon in 1994. After many years of neglect it was donated to the government and renovated into a tourist attraction beginning in 2009.

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.
