Two rows of dormitories built after 1945 to house staff of the Yilan County Government, one side single-storey houses under black tile, the other two-storey red-brick townhouses fronted by small gardens. Many of the original occupants were migrants from Fuzhou, and the lane between the rows became known as Fuzhou Lane (福州巷). Listed as a historic building in 2016, the cluster now operates as part of the Yilan Cultural and Creative Park (蘭陽原創館).

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.
