Completed in 1940, this family tomb features an unusual design with a lion’s head on top. It narrowly escaped destruction in the 2000s. Nowadays there are no human remains on site; it is an empty shell preserved for its historical value.

Curator, Spectral Codex
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.
