A temple venerating Fǎzhǔ Gōng (法主公), the God of Law, founded in the Qing dynasty Daoguang era. The original temple was demolished during the Japanese colonial era for urban redevelopment. Its idols were housed at Puji Temple until 2018 when a new temple was completed immediately next to it, facing the opposite direction.

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.
