An early 18th century residence in the back alleys of Tainan. It is named after a company, not an individual. As one of the oldest surviving residences in the city it was designated as a municipal monument in 2015. Restoration work proceeded over the course of the late 2010s and remains ongoing in 2026. A pair of flagpole stands (旗杆座) sit in the alleyway in front of the old residence but they appear to be recent reconstructions.

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.
