霧峰柳樹湳七將軍爺廟

The origin temple of the Qijiangjun (七將軍) faith, a veneration of the Seven Generals endemic to central Taiwan’s Wu River basin. Founded in 1756 to commemorate seven Qing soldiers killed in an Indigenous-Han frontier conflict in 1748, along with a loyal dog said to have alerted the garrison before dying. The current temple building dates from 1988, with the original shrine and one surviving tombstone still present.

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.
