The school is located at 275 Jianguo South Road Section 1 in the heart of the district and is easily accessible. Visitors can contact the administration through the website yphs.tp.edu.tw or call +886-2-2707-1478 for information and inquiries.
Since moving to its current location in 1953, the campus has been called 'The Palace Above the Water', a poetic name reflecting its distinctive architectural character. This name comes from the building's striking two-story design that seems to rise above water.
