潮州東飛行場

A former Japanese World War 2 airfield along the hills of eastern Pingtung. It may have served as a secondary runway for the larger facility to the west in Chaozhou proper. Taxiways extended to the hills and planes may have been hidden in the woods to avoid US bombing runs. In the post-war era the airfield was not incorporated into the ROC Air Force and the site was soon returned to agricultural use, leaving no known remnants.

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.
