Most people go to Sun Moon Lake in Taiwan because it is very beautiful. Going to Sun Moon Lake is also indispensable for the boating (speedboat) water, but what I care most about is the big meal at the Sun Moon Lake Palace. The reason why it is called the palace is that its origin is from Mr Jiang because the water is also the place to pay attention to the landscape. On the top floor of the palace, while enjoying the freehand dishes, and enjoying the scenic view from the window, it does not feel that important to fill the stomach. It is not too late to get some food.

The best way to go to Sun Moon Lake is to take a ride. At this time, there is some light rain in the weather. You can still avoid the rain on the boat. Haha, you will arrive at Xuanguang Pier in a short while. Xuanguang Temple is a Buddhist temple located on the bank of Sun Moon Lake in Riyue Village, Yuchi Township, Nantou County, Taiwan Province. It was once dedicated to the top bone of Xuanzang. It was originally the place where the Xuan Zang master relics were taken back from Japan and temporarily worshipped. In the Republic of China, after the construction of Xuanzang Temple was completed, Xuan Zang master relics were transferred to Xuanzang Temple. The tea egg of Sun Moon Lake's grandmother only concentrates on doing one thing. In the ladder leading to the Xuanguang Temple at the Xuanguang Temple Pier in Sun Moon Lake, Taiwan, an 84-year-old grandmother sells mushrooms and tea eggs in the pavilion. Apo has sold tea eggs here for more than 60 years, and has been sold from the 18-year-old "Sister Tea Egg" to the 84-year-old "Apo Tea Egg". The name of the grandmother is Zou Jinpeng. She grew up on the bank of Sun Moon Lake. She was a local Thao people. She never thought that the mainlands cross-strait opening policy would sell the tea eggs that sold nearly one Jiazi to the night. Taiwan's best eaten Sun Moon Lake tea egg." The boat stopped at the Shuishe Pier, strolled on the water trail of the Shuishe Pier, and enjoyed the fresh air of nature. The trip to Sun Moon Lake will come to an end. The Shuishe Pier has a special shopping street where visitors can buy something. .

Nantou, Taiwan｜Must-visit attraction in Sun Moon Lake "Xiangshan Cantilever Observation Deck"

#Great Places in September 2024 📝The Xiangshan cantilevered observation deck is a must-visit attraction when traveling to Nantou, Taiwan. The view is superb and you can overlook the beautiful scenery of the entire Sun Moon Lake. Especially the lake and mountain scenery complement each other, which makes people relaxed and happy. The design of the observation deck is very unique. The feeling of hanging in the air is a little irritating, but you can rest assured that it is safe. However, jumping is still not recommended. It is suitable for taking pictures and checking in. You can enjoy the scenery while walking. Remember to bring mosquito repellent~ 📍No. 599, Zhongshan Road, Yuchi Township, Nantou County #Taiwan Attractions #Nantou Attractions #Sun Moon Lake Attractions #Taiwan Good Places

Sun Moon Lake | One of the World's Top 10 Most Beautiful Bike Paths is Right Here at Sun Moon Lake!

The most 'Instagrammable' spot on the Sun Moon Lake loop is right here! The modern architecture of the visitor center, with its sleek concrete design, initially made me think it was an art gallery! The gray exterior and unique spatial design make for great photo opportunities. Here, you'll find a café, shops, exhibitions, and seating areas. It's also the first restaurant since the start of the loop, so if you're hungry, you can grab lunch here. However, the prices are on the higher side. The Sun Moon Lake loop road was selected by CNNGO as one of the world's top 10 most beautiful bike paths, so you definitely have to experience its bike path! Starting from the Xiangshan Visitor Center, you can stay on the bike path all the way to Shuishe without having to get back on the road. While the Yongjie and Tongxin Bridges are the most famous sections, my favorite is the Shuishe Dam. This stretch is a straight road with open views, making the lake feel just within reach. The wooden boardwalk design adds to the leisurely feel of the path. However, note that this section requires you to walk your bike. 📍 Xiangshan Visitor Center / Xiangshan Bike Path You can take the Nantou Bus to the Xiangshan Visitor Center stop, or ride your bike there yourself.

Sun Moon Lake in Taichung: A Perfect Way to Admire the Scenery

Located in the central part of Taiwan, Sun Moon Lake is one of the most famous tourist destinations in Taiwan. We chose to take a boat tour across the lake, where the water is as blue as a mirror, reflecting the sky and the silhouettes of the mountains, creating a moving ink painting. The captain docked at a pier on the opposite shore, allowing us to explore the island and taste the famous Grandma's tea leaf eggs.

memorable place with my boss😘😍

this picture is really great very refreshing

Sun Moon Lake This lake is a local gems according to the literature but I find it a little boring to visit by using the hop on hop off boats. Not as nice as Comp Lake, or beautiful as Hakone Ashinoko Lake. The only place where you can find some food to eat is at stop 3, but the choices are very limited. Taiwan needs to improve its food offer if it were to attract more westerner tourists. #wintergetaway

I remember when I was in elementary school, I learned a text that introduced Taiwans Sun Moon Lake. Sun Moon Lake is the largest lake in Taiwan Province of China... Since then, it seems that there is a special kind of ambiguity for Sun Moon Lake, and I hope that I can go to see the beauty of Sun Moon Lake someday. Sun Moon Lake is one of the most famous scenic spots in Taiwan. It is also the second largest lake in Taiwan and the largest natural lake, lying on the hill between Yushan and Alishan. Sun Moon Lake was originally a separate lake. Later, due to power generation needs, the dam was built downstream and the water level rose. The two lakes were integrated. The climate of Sun Moon Lake is pleasant in all seasons. The average temperature in winter is above 15 °C, and in summer it is only around 22 °C in July. It is a summer resort. Borrow a bicycle and slowly ride around the lake. It is one of the best ways to experience Sun Moon Lake. Stroll around the lake, cool breeze blowing down nightfall, the original lively neighborhood, Slowly quiet down, Sun Moon Lake seems to have entered a state of sleep, the lake looks very calm. In the morning, Sun Moon Lake is still in the misty morning fog. After breakfast, prepare to take a cruise ship and feel the beautiful Sun Moon Lake again from the water. From the Ita Shao Passenger Transport Center, board a cruise. There are several islands in the Sun Moon Lake, each with its own characteristics. Specially want to see Xuanguang Island in Sun Moon Lake, there will be singing performances by Taiwanese aborigines on the island. This song is like the sound of the sound of heaven and earth. Don't miss out on visiting the friends of Xuanguang.

Taiwans Xiangshan Administrative Center is located on the other side of the Hanbi Peninsula on the west side of Sun Moon Lake in Taiwan. The entire administrative center has a unique architectural style and is made up of two curved buildings that are low and open. Around the building, surrounded by a strip of pool, and the Sun Moon Lake behind it. The designer here promotes the quiet and mysterious temperament of Sun Moon Lake with the concept of Zen, and places the parking lot under a Zen garden, and walks between the water and the land and the water. The restaurant creates a poetic realm. The center of the building of the Visitor Center does not have bright exterior facing materials, but the simplest concrete is used as the exterior finish of the building, perfectly blending with the beautiful scenery of Sun Moon Lake the infinity pool around the building It extends to the front and feels connected with Sun Moon Lake. The interior of the building is also unique, with a curve that outlines the design of the entire building. This also attracts a lot of Taiwanese local tourists to visit here, and there is no shortage of Taiwanese red card. In addition, many tourists who come to the mountains are directed at the long tea leaves here. It is also one of the must-eat snacks in Taiwan. Looking at the appearance of this one, you know that it is very tasty. Every day, the director has to cook himself and cook the tea eggs filled with several large pots, so that the tourists who smell the fragrance will be full of food.

In the morning, I was still asleep. I was surprised to hear that someone downstairs said that the sun and the moon are foggy. For a photographer who loves photography, how can I miss such a beautiful scenery, so I wear pajamas. Take the SLR and the drone and go straight to the first floor. really did not let me down, the sun and moon pool in the morning fog, like a gauze, fluttering and swaying like the sun and the moon like flowers The face of Jade was unveiled, like a slim girl dancing in a deep blue lake with a graceful figure. The breakfast at Sun Moon Lake Crystal Resort is also very refined. You can choose to sit outside the window while enjoying breakfast and watching the scenery of Sun Moon Lake. Sun Moon Lake Wenwu Temple has become a famous attraction in Sun Moon Lake. The main body of Wenwu Temple is Guan Gong, and it is dedicated to Confucius and Yue Fei. Every time the test season attracts a large number of students, they will come to ask for help. The observation deck of the apse of the Wu Temple above can also see the beauty of the Sun Moon Lake. Inside the building pattern and exquisite craftsmanship, the incense is very strong, no need for tickets, you can go to visit the Sun Moon Lake, just around the fish pond township 6 km mass transit.
