A street market in the center of old Jingmei, with roots reaching back to a Qing dynasty era market that formed around an important ferry crossing in what is now Wenshan, Taipei. By day it operates as a traditional market selling produce, meat, and household goods, and after dark the same lanes turn into a food-oriented night market of several hundred stalls, clustered around Jiying Temple (集應廟).

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.
