Over a century by the Dadu River mouth.
Longjing Elementary School traces its founding to 1905, when it opened as Lishui Togakutsu Public School under Japanese colonial rule. Over more than a century, the school has been renamed several times as Taiwan's education system changed hands from the colonial era through the postwar period. Located near the mouth of the Dadu River, the school's long history is closely tied to Longjing's identity as a farming and fishing village shaped by the river's seasonal flooding.
