Popular tourist destination in central Taiwan
Last week we had a 4-day holiday long weekend due to the Chinese holiday, the annual Dragon Boat Festival. I took the opportunity to drive to Sun Moon Lake in Nantou, located in central Taiwan. I can't recall the last time I was there, so this trip is my first time there with a decent camera!
Here are some photos from my day at Sun Moon Lake and the surrounding areas.
Old docks at Sun Moon Lake. The weather was overcast with light drizzles as we walked along the lake-side trail.
This view of the lake was shot from the top of a nearby mountain, at the end of a hiking trail.
Towards the late afternoon, we finally got some decent weather patterns, as the clouds began to break up revealing the sky and the sun. Here's a rock sign of Sun Moon Lake in Chinese characters, I had to wait until some tourists had their turn with the sign.
Some boats by the lake in the afternoon light.
Spotted this big tree by the lake on our way back to the hostel.

Looks like a fantastic vacation spot. It's been years since I've gone...well...anywhere. #jealous
It's a nice place, as long as there aren't too many tourists :)
So, basically you're saying keep out. Haha. I get that though, I felt the same way at the local ski resort...not that it deserved resort status.
Gorgeous shoots, next time ( or even now) feel free to consider #SunThursday as tag
