An unusual residential tower with a helical design that appears to twist around a central core. After it was completed in 2018 it became a popular backdrop for photography, although the most famous shot with Taipei 101 included is a composite image. It is also legendary for its incredibly high price tag, breaking all records for residential property in Taiwan as of 2025.

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.
