An obscure roadside stele dating to 1923. It was erected in honour of Crown Prince Hirohito’s tour of Taiwan (臺灣行啟), but there is no evidence he ever visited Xindian. Most of the inscription has been worn away over the years. Mostly notable for being overlooked.

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.
