Agena Shipyard: The Mark of Time in the Aesthetics of Ruins

#SeptemberDestinations2025 The remains of the Agena Shipyard, located in Badouzi, Keelung, were built during the Japanese colonial period and were originally a large shipbuilding base. With the decline of industry, the factory area gradually fell into disrepair, but the remaining reinforced concrete buildings exude a unique aesthetic of ruin. The mottled walls, rusted steel frames, and overgrown greenery create a scene of time warping, attracting photography enthusiasts and artistic travelers. Today, the site is not only a historical industrial relic, but also a popular Instagram-worthy spot. Standing among the dilapidated buildings, one can experience the contrast between the former prosperity and the present vicissitudes, a unique experience. -- Directions Transportation: Drive to Badouzi, Keelung, or take the train to Ruifang and transfer to the bus.
