Taiwan Prefecture Examination Hall (臺灣府儒考棚) - Spectral Codex

The most significant remaining relic of the Qing dynasty effort to build a new capital city in this area. This examination hall languished in a back alley for decades and was only recognized and refurbished in the 2010s.

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.
