A stone deity temple (石頭公廟) housing a face-shaped stone said to have been discovered in 1779, either washed down by a mountain flood or found by a woodcutter on Baguashan. The surrounding villages later took the name Shitougong Village (石頭公庄) from this stone. The temple was rebuilt in 2004 after a truck crashed into it.

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.
