A private hospital established in 1956 and rebuilt at this location in the 1980s. The hospital moved to a more modern facility in 2017, leaving this building vacant and exposed to the elements. Over time it has come to the attention of Taiwan’s urban exploration community and sensationalist ghost hunting content creators.

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.
