Taichung Wang Family Residence (台中王氏古厝) - Spectral Codex

The main hall of an old residence dating back to 1927. It was built by Wang Dui (王對), eldest son of the first district chief of the area in the Japanese colonial period, Wang Tian (王田). Much of the original property has been redeveloped, leaving only this remnant in an alleyway.

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).
