Fireworks and music show at Taiwan

-

Rated as one of the top attraction­s in Taiwan, the Sun Moon Lake, situated in Nantou County’s Yuchi Township near the center of Taiwan, is the island’s largest lake.

Experience the beautiful, romantic ideal destinatio­n for a relaxed holiday with family or for honeymoon. The eastern part of the lake is round like the sun and the western side is shaped like a crescent moon, giving the beautiful lake its name, ‘Sun Moon Lake’. The waters of the lake are crystal clear in shades of green and turquoise blue and reflect the surroundin­g hills and mountains perfectly.

The best way to see the Sun Moon Lake is to take a stroll along its shores or ride a bicycle along the road circling the lake while soaking up the in the tranquilli­ty and peace of the lake and the area around. The biking trail along the lake is very famous and popular with riders. Or you can board a boat and take a leisurely cruise over the waves as you soak in the beauty of the mountains and waters. There are also a number of rowboats on rent which can be hired to enjoy the scenery at leisure. Sun Moon Lake also hosts the grand Music and Fireworks festival every September which forms a bright and eclectic part of tourist carnival activities. The reflection of brilliant bursts of colours, sparkles and fiery trails of light on the lake’s crystallin­e surface is a sight to behold. This year, the Sun Moon Lake Music & Fireworks Festival Programme is extensive and incorporat­es music, traditiona­l tea ceremonies and Opera performanc­es with grand fireworks display.
