Sun Moon Lake National Scenic Area
Central Taiwan's Pearl Sun Moon Lake is Taiwan's largest semi-natural lake, shining like an inlaid pearl in the center of Taiwan. At an elevation of 750 meters, it is surrounded by beautiful scenery. Lalu Island (a sacred place of the Thao tribe) marks the boundary between the eastern and western sides, which appear like a solar disk and crescent moon, from which this lake gets its name. Here, dreamlike landscapes of mountains, forest, and water are waiting to be discovered. Due to its plentiful water resources, this is also the site of a hydropower plant. All in all, this is an ecological paradise. The Sun Moon Lake National Scenic Area includes the lake and surrounding Puli Town and Xinyi and Shuili townships. Places to visit include Checheng, Formosan Aboriginal Culture Village, Shuishe Mountain, Jiji, Mingtan Reservoir, Daguan Power Plant, Jiji, Green Tunnel, Taomi Ecological Village, Stele of Taiwan's Geographic Center, and three indigenous communities: Dili, Shuanglong, and Tannan. Visitors can choose from a diversity of attractions and itineraries. What are you waiting for? Come to Sun Moon Lake for a unique travel experience!
