Established in November 1931, this rural Shinto shrine located somewhere in the hills behind Gongqian Village (宮前部落) in Yuli. Reports indicate some remains, mostly broken concrete, can be found around a land god shrine (宮前福德祠). On-site inspection will be required to elucidate more. Exact location not yet determined. Possibly known as Kannonsan-sha in the original Japanese.

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.
