Originally established in 1835 as an ossuary for unidentified remains. It was renovated around 1933, giving the structure a distinctly Japanese colonial era appearance. Located along one side of Zhongzheng Park (中正公園), although the far side of the structure is also accessible from a parking lot on the laneway around back. Also known as Wanshan Hall (萬善堂).

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.
