Located in Nanliao, "Hsinchu Fishing Port" was formerly known as "Nanliao Fishing Port."
「新竹漁港」位在南寮，以前叫「南寮漁港」。

Opened during the Qing Dynasty in 1731 and situated the closest to China , Hsinchu Fishing Port was one of the four major commercial ports in Taiwan .
清帝國時代1731年開港，與中國直航距離最近，曾經是台灣4大貿易港之一。

The Chinese Civil War ended in 1949. The trade plummeted as a result of the bilateral sea transportation blockage, causing the status of Hsinchu Fishing Port to take a dive.
1949年國共內戰結束，兩岸航運封鎖，造成貿易沒落 ，而新竹漁港地位一落千丈。

Additionally, due to the port being situated at the Touqian River mouth, the river sand deposited, resulting in almost loss of the sea transportation function for the old fishing port.
又因為港口位在頭前溪出海口，河沙淤積，舊漁港幾乎失去航運功能。

A new port was later opened west of the old fishing port, becoming a crucial sea-going fishing port in Taiwan today.
後來在舊漁港西側，開闢新港，現在是台灣很重要的遠洋漁港。

In addition to being where the 17 Kilometers of Splendid Coastline Cycling Path starts, the old fishing port was transformed into a sightseeing fishing port.
舊漁港轉型成為觀光娛樂漁港。也是17公里海岸自行車道起點。

There are many cafes and catering trucks selling cold beverages. It's quite a treat to drink a cup of coffee while sitting down and enjoying the sea breeze.
附近有很多咖啡店和餐車賣冷飲，坐下來吹海風，喝一杯咖啡，相當享受。
