A former military dependents’ village for members of ROCAF and their families built on the site of a Japanese colonial era anti-aircraft position in what is now Sanchong in New Taipei. The site is fairly well-preserved and also features tunnels and dugouts from World War 2.

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.
