Former cinema on the third and fourth floors of a mixed-use building. Opened in 1983 and only closed in 2013. Long operated by Chen Mingtian (陳明田). It was the last vintage theater still operating in Hsinchu County. In the 2020s the old theater was sealed tight and much of the building redeveloped into dormitories for migrant workers.

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.
