Part of a Japanese colonial era police station built in 1913. Most of it was demolished in the late 1970s but the old switchboard room was retained. It was recently refurbished but it isn’t clear if it is open to the public as of 2024.

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.
