Minor West Gate, also known as Jing-Bo Gate, means the calming of wind and waves. Today it stands next to the Department of History of NCKU, yet it was originally located at today's Minor West Gate circular intersection. Because that area was at the foot of the gate, it was called "Xiao-Xi-Jiao." It has been a prosperous cargo harbor since the Qing Dynasty, not only it was the estuary of Fu'An Creek, but it was and where goods are boarded and disembarked, populous and prosperous. In addition to retaining t h e t ra d i t i o n a l l i fe c u l t u re a n d traditional snacks in Tainan, the local The "Nanchang Bao'An Temple" the religious center, also houses the Bi-Xi (one of the nine sons of a dragon with the form of a tortoise) tablet made by Emperor Qianlong to commemorate the of Shuang-Wen, Lin Incident, which is the same batch of stone tablets as the nine stony tablets in front of the Chi-Kan Tower today. However, this tablet accidentally fell into the ocean. Only after this place was transformed into an aquafarm in the Japanese occupational era was it fished out, and it has since become a famous story.

As for the Fu'An Creek, which is now hidden in the city, flows down from the source of its tributary stream, the Pan-Chi (semi Crescent-Shaped pond) of Confucius Temple through Tainan Shrine and the old Tainan District Court to Ē-Tāi-Tō and Nan Chang Bao'An Temple into Tai-Jiang lagoon. It witnessed the city's changes around the Xiao-Xi-Jiao area from the Qing Dynasty to the Japanese occupation era.
