By MOOK Travel Life Network Editorial Team
Situated in Nantou County in central Taiwan at an altitude of 750 meters, Sun Moon Lake is one of the most popular tourist spots for couples. The name of the lake comes from Lalu Island, which gives the impression of a crescent moon and a full moon. Nestled within serene and stunning mountain scenery, the lake covers an area of eight square kilometers, making it the largest lake in Taiwan.

In addition to admiring the dreamlike scenery of Sun Moon Lake, travelers can also experience hiking or cycling along the mountains or lakeside, enjoy the romantic moments of boating alone on the water, and more. Moreover, the government holds an annual “Sail Around Sun Moon Lake” event during the Mid-Autumn Festival, attracting over 10,000 participants each year — a spectacular event well worth witnessing firsthand.
