A temple classroom that became a school.
Yong'an Elementary School's origins trace to a branch classroom established in 1917 at the Yong'an Temple in Shuikutou village, during the Japanese colonial era; it became an independent branch school in 1922. As one of the oldest schools in Xitun, its founding site directly ties the school to the old Shuikutou agricultural settlement that predates the district's modern urban development.
