Only after witnessing the sunset over Tai Lake can one truly understand romance

Located on Xishan Island, the largest island in Tai Lake, there is an ancient village called Mingyuewan Ancient Village. This place is also a filming location for the TV series 'All Is Well' and 'Silent Separation'. The ancient camphor tree, which is 1200 years old, is one of the landmarks here. Beside the tree, the Mingyue Bridge spans the small river in the village, and the streets and alleys are paved with stone slabs. The village is circular, allowing visitors to tour in a clockwise direction. There are ancestral halls such as the Huang Family Ancestral Hall and the royal ancestral halls of the Deng and Qin families. There are also some well-preserved private residences that are open for visitors. The ancient pier on the west side is another landmark of this place and the best spot to watch the sunset. Recently, in the afternoons when the sunset 🌇 begins, this place starts to get crowded. You can enjoy the cool breeze and take photos 📷. 🍴 Along the way, there is also delicious food that should not be missed. The 28 Li Tai Lake Boat Cuisine (Guangfu Store) is the perennially top-ranked restaurant in the Tai Lake area. If you're passing by Xishan, you can't miss out on trying it once 🉐️.

Full of exquisite mansions and ancestral temples, stone slab streets, a pier, a wharf, and other public buildings, Bright Moon Bay flourished during the Qianlong period. Bright Moon Bay has a long history. With its wonderful scenery, it has served as a literati meeting point since ancient times. Poets like Bai Juyi, Jia Dao, Huang Tingjian and Gao Qi all wrote verses praising its beauty.
