Formally known as Yingchun Gate (迎春門), this was one of the 14 city gates of the old city of Tainan. It was originally established in 1726 and significantly upgraded tin 1736 and again in 1788 after the Lin Shuangwen Rebellion (林爽文事件). It was rebuilt in the 1970s and is now recognized as a national monument.

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.
