Mosquito Halls in Taiwan

Mosquito halls (蚊子館) are disused and typically abandoned buildings constructed with public funds in Taiwan. The term was popularized by Yao Jui-Chung (姚瑞中), a professor of the arts at NTUA, and a sprawling team of student researchers known as Lost Society Document. Together they have identified and documented more than 800 sites in a series of controversial publications. Gathered here are some of my own explorations of government mismanagement and waste in Taiwan.
