History

Shanshang Old Waterworks and Garden Museum

The Waterworks project began in 1897, by W.K. Burton and Hamanno Yashiro, and finished in 1912, during the Japanese colonial period. The Zengwen river supplied the water. First the water went to a sedementation pond, then the water purification room, and finally into the water purification pond. The waterworks was decommisioned after World War II. It was declared a county-level historical site in 2002, and a national historic site in 2005.

Water Faucet Platform

The water faucet platform was recently installed infront of the north building of the school. It features a water faucet because Shanshang is home to the waterworks. The drop coming from the faucet is about to splash onto the platform below which shows a mosaic work of ripples and mountains. The platform is used for the weekly flag ceremonies and as a stage to announces awards, events, etc.
