A bell tower was constructed on this hilltop on the south side of Yingge in the Japanese colonial period to watch for fires and call for the authorities in the event of emergencies. It was constructed out of red brick and survived into the 1990s, but partly collapsed in the 921 Earthquake, and nowadays only the foundation remains. It gives its name to the surrounding Yingge Old Bell Tower Park (鶯歌古鐘樓公園).

Author

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.
