An unranked shrine (無格社) established in 1907 near Duigaoyu (對高岳), a peak in the high mountains of central Taiwan along the border between Nantou and Chiayi counties. This is one of the earliest Shinto shrines established in the remote mountain areas of Taiwan. It is unclear if any remnants survive.

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.
