Rural church built in 1962 by Edward Averbeck. The front of the church is intentionally designed to look like the letters “AM”. As with many other churches in this part of Pingtung it would have mainly served Taiwanese Indigenous working as sugarcane farmers. Long abandoned due to population outflow.

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.
