During the Qianlong reign, the ancient name for the Songshan area was "Xikou." Located at Water Gate No. 4 on Songhe Street, the Xikou Ferry Port has been a hub for north-south commerce and cargo distribution since ancient times. It was once highly prosperous and served as the starting port of the essence of Xikou cultural development in the Songshan area.

On December 15, 2009 (the 98th year of the Republic of China), the Taipei City Government completed the construction of Xikou Pier to extend the Blue Highway routes. Simultaneously, they renovated the surrounding revetments and the overall landscape of the waterfront boardwalk, while connecting the pedestrian trail between Xikou Pier and the Keelung River No. 4 Evacuation Gate. Furthermore, Xikou Pier is located close to featured attractions such as the Rainbow Bridge, Songshan Ciyou Temple, and Raohe Street Tourist Night Market. Offering both food and fun, it will become another tourism landmark in your heart.
