Longjing Well

　　   In the late 19th century, Korean settlers Zhang Renshuo and Park In-yeon found an ancient well about 60 meters northeast of the intersection of Longjing Street and Liudaogou in what is now Longjing City. The well water was cool and sweet, so the settlers erected a "shaduf" — known locally as a "dragon bucket" — next to the well. Later, the people of Liudaogou named their village "Longjing Village."

　　   After many vicissitudes, in 1934, to commemorate the origin of the place name "Longjing," a stone stele inscribed with the nine characters "Well Spring Where the Name Longjing Originated" was erected beside the well, initiated by Li Jixie and others.
