A former Shinto shrine on school campus about which little is known. It may have held a taima hōsaiden (大麻奉齋殿), a small structure containing imperial talismans but no enshrined kami. It was mostly dismantled sometime after the war, leaving a stone base, and the pair of komainu remaining on site appear to have been salvaged from the nearby Xiushui Shinto Shrine (秀水神社). Access to the site is restricted during school hours.

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.
