A large expanse of residences evicted and mostly demolished by the mid-2010s. Due to the scale of the community it attracted the attention of “night tour” content creators and was pitched as a “haunted” village before it was destroyed. It is unclear whether this was once a military dependents’ village or some other kind of government resettlement community. It is also known in the media as Shenzhou Ruined Community (神州廢棄社區). As of 2025 only a small portion of the community remains; the rest has been razed over recent years.

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.
