A historic wooden railway station in Xiangshan, on the coast of Hsinchu, where a stop was first established in 1902. The present building was completed in January 1928, during the Japanese colonial era, using cypress from Alishan, with a hip-and-gable roof, a surrounding veranda, and a shaded porch at one end. It is still operational and TRA staff are on site.

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.
