Established in February 1930 like most other Shinto shrines in this part of Taitung. Current status is unknown; it might be lost in the overgrowth along Jianhe Second Road (建和二路), or perhaps it was thoroughly dismantled long ago. Known as Shamagan-shi in Japanese and named after the Indigenous village of Kasavakan.

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.
