The Bus Terminal at 16-1 Minzu Road, Magong, is the shared terminus for four of Penghu County’s main urban and inter-district routes, making it the county’s busiest transit hub. Whether commuting locally, traveling on a day trip, or connecting to and from Penghu Airport, most passengers board and alight here. The stop sits adjacent to the Penghu County Government building in a centrally accessible location. From here, services fan out in four directions across Penghu’s main island — northwest via Baisha to Xiyu, east into Huxi Township, south through Waian and Zhuyuan, and a direct shuttle to Penghu Airport — giving first-time visitors a clear and manageable starting point.
