One of two embankment dams along the western shoreline of Sun Moon Lake in Yuchi, Nantou. It was constructed as part of the hydroelectric project to ensure lake levels can be maintained at a higher level. There isn’t actually very much to see of the dam on site.

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.
