Anping Old Well(延平街古井) is located in the southeast of Shi Ban Street, Da Yuan Shi Street (大員市街的石板街)of old Fort Zeelandia (熱蘭遮城) on today’s Yanping Street. It was once a valuable source of fresh water, the flow abundant and the water fresh. The bean sprouts local people grew using water from the well were particularly sweet. As many people came to the area to buy bean-sprouts, the area was once called “bean-sprout house” and the well “bean-sprout well.”
