Xikou Township, Rural township in Chiayi County, Taiwan

Xikou Township spans 33 square kilometers of flat, agricultural terrain at the convergence of the Huasing and Sandie Rivers in Chiayi County.

The settlement patterns of Han Chinese migrants over 200 years ago established Xikou Township, which reached its population peak of 21,000 residents in 1980.

The township maintains fourteen distinct villages including Bencuo, Chailin, and Deisi, where residents primarily engage in traditional agricultural activities.

The local economy centers on agricultural production, with farmers specializing in the cultivation of tomatoes and muskmelon throughout the growing seasons.

The intersection of two rivers gave the township its original name '雙溪口', meaning 'two river mouth' in Chinese characters.
