A Japanese colonial era residence in Xiehe Village near the Baguashan foothills, distinguished by its Western-influenced architecture with yellow exterior walls and green window frames. Likely a branch of the Liu clan from nearby Ningyuan Hall (寧遠堂), though the building remains undocumented in historical records. The refined craftsmanship suggests the original owner was a person of some local importance.

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.
