A recently recognized section of the Tuniu Line (土牛紅線), instituted in the early 18th century to demarcate a boundary between Qing-administered Taiwan and the Indigenous lands beyond. Initially this border was marked by stones, but extensive ditches were eventually dug, among which this is reputedly the most well-preserved.

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.
