Former golden age cinema on Tamsui’s busiest tourist thoroughfare. It was renovated sometime after 1994, as the current appearance does not resemble its former look in archival photographs. The current building was indeed screening films until around 2011. It was home to two halls, Golden Dragon (金龍) and Golden Horse (金馬), and the name of the theater is still visible on the exterior.

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.
