| Sun Moon Lake is located in central Taiwan, the biggest freshwater lake in Taiwan, and a most beautiful mountain lake |
| as well. The surface boundary of the lake is the Lalu Island, |
|
| the shape of its east-side is like a sun and the west-side like a |
| crescent moon, and therefore it is given a name of the Sun |
| Moon Lake. Her beauty is integrated and created by the |
| mountains and the lake; the middle-height elevation of 748.48 |
| meters develops the painting-like mountains and water view |
| of Sun Moon Lake, the mist and the changes of the defined |
| mountain layers, and the prospects of poetry and painting alike, |
| all these stop visitors from leaving. |
