Looking east along Xingzhong Lane (興中巷).

An eastward extension of Japanese colonial era wooden dormitories for police officers in Yuanlin, Changhua, mostly along Xingzhong Lane (興中巷). Little information exists to attest to its history, but these dormitories likely date to the mid-1930s and presumably continued to house police officers in the post-war period. As with most other housing stock of its vintage, it was likely emptied out in the early 2000s, and by the 2010s it was largely abandoned and left to the elements with perhaps a few holdouts still remaining. These buildings were not recognized for their heritage value and consequently the entire community was flattened in spring 2026, leaving nothing behind.

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.
