A wooden bridge was built for pedestrians to cross a brook located in the west of today's Banqiao. In 1920, the Japanese government modified the name (板橋, PafnkiQo, l. planked bridge), which is read "Itabashi" in Japanese. The same name is still used today, but is called "Banqiao" in Mandarin. However, in Taiwanese Hokkien, the old name "PangkiQo" is still the norm.
