Xiji Island Introduction
Xijiyu, also known as Xiji Island, is an island in the Penghu archipelago of Taiwan. It serves as an important point on the Ta-Peng Channel and was formerly part of the administrative area of Xiji Village in Wang-an Township, Penghu County (which has been abolished). It is currently part of the plan for the Southern Four Islands National Marine Park of Penghu (including Dongjiyu, Xijiyu, Dongyupingyu, and Xiyupingyu). Xijiyu is located approximately 4.5 kilometers from Dongjiyu. Due to its remote location and inconvenient transportation, residents have faced difficulties in making a living, leading to a sharp decline in population. As a result, the government assisted in the relocation of the village on July 1, 1978.
