雲林縣舊城

Nothing remains at the former site of the late Qing dynasty city of Yunlin, now situated in Zhushan, Nantou. The construction of the walled compound was never fully funded and by 1893 the site was abandoned in favour of a new city in what is now Douliu, Yunlin. Incidentally, this is why Yunlin County is the only administrative unit in Taiwan without a corresponding city of the same name!

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.
