Cruising on Sun Moon Lake (日月潭) at Taiwan

Let’s go cruising on Sun Moon Lake! Our next stop is Sun Moon Lake (日月潭). It is a deep lake and actually the largest body of water in Taiwan. It is the home to the Thao tribe and situated in Yuchi, Nantou. The weather is also very nice on the day we visited Sun Moon Lake.

Cruising on Sun Moon Lake is a must do in Taiwan.
