A public market in central Yuanli, first established in 1907 during the Japanese colonial era. The surviving structures date to a 1934 reconstruction in red brick, which then suffered damage in the 1935 Hsinchu-Taichung earthquake. A fire gutted the main hall and annex in 2018, and the complex has been under restoration since, with official heritage status designated in 2019.

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.
