A modern shrine constructed to venerate Alizu (阿立祖), a deity important to the Taiwanese Plains Indigenous people. It was apparently designed to emulate the style of Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall in Taipei, only with three sides open to the elements.

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.
