An unranked (無格社) Shinto shrine established in December 1937. This former Shinto shrine was dismantled but many relics remain, including an imposing torii painted red, the original komainu (guardian lion-dogs), stone lanterns, etc. The site is now occupied by Xizhi Zhongshun Temple and several relics have been relocated to Xizhi Gongbei Temple. Known as Shiodome-jinja in the original Japanese.

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.
