Qitou Outer is a transit stop in Penghu’s Xiyu area that links Magong city with the outlying townships. Three bus routes call here, primarily serving commuters and transfer passengers traveling to and from Tongliang, Wai-an, and the surrounding rural areas. Routes 0758 (Line 21) and 0762 (Line 22) operate multiple trips throughout the day, from early morning to early evening, covering work commutes, school runs, and everyday travel needs. Route 0798 (Line 25) runs a single evening service for residents returning to the outer residential areas at night.
Location
Qitou Outer sits in the outer part of Xiyu and lies along the main bus corridor heading west toward Wai-an fishing village and south toward the residential and commercial areas of Tongliang. The surroundings are mostly open countryside and scattered housing, with views that are broad but facilities that are modest. The bus shelter provides basic shade and rain cover. As the stop is in a rural area, convenience stores and other amenities are not within easy walking distance — take care of any purchases before boarding.
Travel Tips
Qitou Outer is in a rural location with limited service frequency; missing a bus means waiting for the next one. During the day, Routes 0758 (Line 21) and 0762 (Line 22) offer several departures, making them well suited for daytime travel. In the evenings, Route 0798 (Line 25) runs just one trip, departing at 20:59, with the return service estimated to reach Magong around 21:50 — confirm with the timetable before relying on this. During winter the northeast monsoon strengthens and outer routes may experience occasional delays; arriving at the stop 10 minutes early is advisable. High ultraviolet radiation and wind-blown sand are common throughout Penghu, including here — use the shelter for extended waits and apply sun protection. On the evening service, visibility is low, so wear clothing in colors that are easy for drivers to see.
