Historic sanatorium originally constructed in 1929 for people suffering from leprosy. It has been in a semi-abandoned state for many years while it was threatened by the development of a major MRT depot.

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.
