In 1933 during the Republic of China, the area belonged to Shuiyuan Township () and Shangnan Township (). In 1958, Red Sun People's Commune () was founded and one year later split into three communes, namely Sanmei People's Commune (), Longsheng People's Commune (), and Shuiyuan People's Commune ().
