Magong Terminal is Penghu County’s largest bus hub — the common departure point for 16 routes and the transfer center most frequently used by tourists and residents alike. The terminal is located at 16-1 Minzu Road, Magong City, adjacent to the Penghu County Government and Magong Post Office, with the harbor, temples, and historic streets all within walking distance. From here you can reach urban loop services (Wukan, Shagang, Jianshan, and Longmen circuits), outer routes (Shanshui, Fenggui, Qingluo, Tongliang, and Taiwu), and long-distance departures toward Xiyu. Whether you arrive by ferry at Magong Harbor, by plane, or from your accommodation, Magong Terminal is almost always your first boarding point in Penghu.
Location
The terminal occupies a full block on Minzu Road beside the post office, with multiple covered waiting shelters, clear route boards, and a ticket window. The waiting areas are sheltered overhead, though the northeast monsoon in winter means wind can still be felt. An 8-minute walk west leads to the First Fishing Port at Magong Harbor, where fishing boats dock alongside a working boatyard. About 10 minutes south along Zhongshan Road brings you to Tianhou Temple, Penghu’s most important religious site and a frequent venue for temple festivals and community gatherings. Within a 3-minute walk, you can enter Zhongzheng Road Old Street, lined with traditional snack stalls and century-old buildings — a go-to destination for local flavors. The entire area has ramp access and public restrooms available.
Travel Tips
First-time visitors may find it easy to board the wrong bus given the number of routes. Among the 16 lines, many are urban loops connecting Magong with various neighborhoods, or outer loop circuits — 0765 Wukan, 0766 Shagang, 0767 Jianshan, and 0774 Longmen. These routes often run in both directions, so always confirm the final destination before boarding. The safest approach is to check the electronic display at the front of the bus or ask the station staff or driver. Departures are unevenly spaced: services are frequent from 6:30–8:00 AM and 6:00–10:00 PM, but sparse from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM. In winter, strong northeast monsoon winds can cause 10–20-minute delays — or even cancellations — on routes toward Shanshui, Fenggui, Tongliang, and Taiwu. Check the latest updates from the Penghu County Public Vehicle and Vessel Administration or the real-time section on this page before heading out. Last departures vary by route, generally between 20:00–22:00, and may leave earlier in winter.
