Established in 1909 by Yanshuigang Sugar Co. Ltd. (鹽水港製糖株式會社), primarily for the transportation of raw materials, but also for passengers and general freight. It has the distinction of being the first passenger station on the nascent sugar railway network, with service to Xinying. It was extensively bombed during World War 2 but soon rebuilt. Passenger service was suspended in 1979 and the station was derelict for many decades before the entire area, including the ruins of an old sugar company warehouse, were tidied up and turned into a public park.

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.
