Let's go to Taiwan Province in 1979 with Doi's camera.

a photographer from Japann, Kuro Doi, began to travel to Taipei, Keelung and Tainan in 1979, and began to take pictures of his travels with a camera when he was in Kaohsiung Port. Recently, he posted these pics on his facebook, which allowed us to open a closed door.

A photo is a door that can open history. When you open it, you can see the past of a city from an entrance. Nearly 4 years ago, in 1979, Taiwan Province looked at us across the sea, not far away, but with a mysterious veil, which made people want to find out.

But times have changed. Many historical buildings have been demolished or rebuilt in the development of the city, and they have lost their original appearance. Fortunately, some people left these precious images of the city. A photographer from Japan, Kuro Doi, went to Kaohsiung Port in 1979 and recorded what he saw with his camera. In addition, he visited Taipei, Keelung, Tainan and other places one after another. Recently, he made the photos public on his facebook.

At that time, people generally didn't have telephones in their homes, and girls often secretly used public telephones to chat with their boyfriends.

In 1984, Mr. Doi Jiulang flew to Taiwan Province for the second time. When he was chatting with the passengers next door, they asked him if he wanted to take pictures of any scenic spots. He replied "school", so he took this unexpected photo of the primary school where he was convenient to take his daughter to study. At that time, the neat and consistent hairstyle and the backpack on one side of the desk were less and less common pictures.

The street view of Tainan, like now, is that motorcycles are still a popular means of transportation.
