Shulin Sacred Words Incinerator (樹林聖蹟亭) - Spectral Codex

A ritual paper incinerator originally constructed in 1872 and relocated to Tandi Park (潭底公園) in 1989. It was restored in 2010 and no longer looks like an antique. Very few of these remain in the Taipei Basin.

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.
