Discover the enchantment of Sun Moon Lake, a captivating oasis nestled within Taiwan's mountains. As the island's largest freshwater lake, it's named for its unique geography: a sun-shaped main section and a crescent moon adjunct. Glide across shimmering waters on traditional boats, witnessing temples and pagodas that dot the verdant shores. Embrace the tranquillity of dawn as mist dances above the lake, or embark on trails that offer panoramic vistas of this natural marvel. Marrying scenic allure with cultural richness, Sun Moon Lake is a testament to Taiwan's harmonious dance of nature and tradition.

EXPERIENCES

A range of thrilling experiences handpicked by our experts. Don’t see one that’s just right for you? No problem. Our local insiders will create precisely what you want.

Cycling Sun Moon Lake


Recognized as one of the world's top cycling routes, the Sun Moon Lake Bike Path offers breathtaking panoramic views of the shimmering lake, set against misty mountains. Whether you're a seasoned cyclist or just looking for a leisurely ride, the pathway caters to all. Pedal your way through verdant forests, alongside tranquil shores, and stop at viewing decks to soak in the landscape's serenity.

Cruise the Tranquil Waters


Embrace the calm of Sun Moon Lake with a boat cruise. Glide over glassy waters, taking in the scenic vistas of lush mountainsides and temples perched on the lake's edge. Each boat stop, like Xuanguang Temple and Ita Thao Village, offers unique cultural and spiritual insights. The gentle sway of the boat and the captivating beauty around make for a rejuvenating journey.

Aboriginal Culture Village


Experience the indigenous heritage of Taiwan at this expansive theme park set in the mountains overlooking Sun Moon Lake. Discover traditional homes, performances, and crafts from Taiwan's major tribes. The village also boasts amusement rides and a lush European garden. With culture and entertainment combined, it's an enriching day out for all ages.

Ci'en Pagoda


Perched atop a hill, the Ci'en Pagoda offers unparalleled views of Sun Moon Lake, especially during sunrise. Wake up early and hike the trail leading to this seven-story pagoda. As the sun slowly ascends, casting golden hues over the mist-covered lake and mountains, the sight is simply ethereal. The pagoda itself, built in memory of Chiang Kai-shek's mother, adds historical depth to the visit.

Ita Thao Village


Dive deep into the local culture by wandering through Ita Thao, the primary Thao indigenous settlement around Sun Moon Lake. Mingle with locals, learn about their traditions, and indulge in authentic delicacies like bamboo rice and grilled mochi. The bustling streets, lined with quaint shops selling artisanal crafts and foods, encapsulate the vibrant spirit of the Thao people.

Wenwu Temple


Overlooking the northern banks of Sun Moon Lake, Wenwu Temple stands as a testament to traditional Chinese architecture. With its majestic dragon pillars, intricate carvings, and vast courtyards, the temple is a feast for the eyes. While the main halls are dedicated to Confucius and various war deities, the temple's tranquillity invites introspection and peace, making it a spiritual haven.
