Numerous air raid shelters were built around the dormitories and factory area of Sankandian Sugar Factory from 1941 to 1945. Although the rest of the factory has been completely demolished these shelters are now listed as heritage structures, and the surrounding area is a small 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.
