One of the few temples in Taiwan with Huye (虎爺), the Tiger God, as the main deity rather than a subordinate spirit. Founded in 2007 by Lin Yilang (林一郎), it operates out of a small storefront on Siyuan Road (思源路) and features a rare anthropomorphic representation of the deity.

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.
