Completed in 2006, this small temple honores Huye (虎爺), the Tiger God. Although common in the temples across Taiwan it is rare to find one dedicated solely to this deity. He appears in anthropomorphic form on the main altar.

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.
