A former Japanese colonial era garrison in Wufeng, originally established on the Maibarai Frontier Militia Line (マイバライ隘勇線), one of several security cordons along the Indigenous frontier. In the post-war era it was repurposed as Zhongxing Police Substation (忠興派出所) and eventually abandoned. The site is marked by an imposing flight of stone steps leading up from the road to a platform with some traces of the post-war station. It is notable for being one of the most easily accessed of the hundreds of former garrison posts in Taiwan’s mountainous interior, although you’d have to get all the way out here first.

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.
