Pingxi is a small town in the mountains about a two-hour train ride outside of Taipei. Often overlooked by tourists for it's more popular neighbors Jiufen and Shifen.
When I visited on a weekday afternoon, almost all the shops and restaurants were closed. It reminded of me a ghost town. But I vastly preferred Pingxi over it's crowded and cheesy neighbors. It had a quiet calm and a derelict loneliness about it that made me instantly fall in love. I tried to capture those feelings with a few photos taken in the afternoon sun of autumn.
