Xitun Jiaoshi New Village (西屯教師新村) - Spectral Codex

Established in 1969, this village was originally built for teachers and their families. It was a model community, the first of its kind established in Taiwan, and others soon followed. Nowadays the buildings are old and it has become rundown, but there are also many small businesses operated out of the old residences.

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.
