幸福樂園 Xingfu Funfair -- Then and Now

Back in the 80's you could see the huge ferris wheel at the Xingfu Amusement Park, located at the top of a mountain near Bitan in Xindian, for miles. The park was shut down, and a crane operator was killed when the ferris wheel fell on him when they were tearing the place down. It's since become infamous as a haunted area.

When I was shooting a film at an abandoned police station near the old gate, I found stacks of old amusement park brochures, so I scanned them in and then went up to see if I could find the original locations of the pictures and take present-day versions. This is the result.
