| The unique geographical location of the Sun Moon Lake - surrounded by mountains and water, has created an abundant ecological system for this area. As far as plant-life is concerned, Sun Moon Lake is contains an abundance of evergreen plants, mainly broad-leaved trees. This group of plants is made up of the following categories: Moist plants, artificial forestry, and native forestry. |

Many different varieties of plants grow well under moist conditions. Moist plants grow copiously around the area close to the lake, where it is moist and damp.
Apart from the moist plants, forestry is another major attraction. There are also a huge variety of trees, ranging from cryptomeria to the camphor family.
Beetles are the most popular of the Sun Moon Lake insects. Each year from May onwards, they can be seen everywhere. This is particularly true at night when they fly towards lights. Why not take a walk around the nearby Hanbi Building; the night scene around this building is one of the most attractive sites of Sun Moon Lake. As you walk along the path, which is approximately two kilometers long, you will also see glowing worms shinning in the dark. What more can one ask for?

Birds viewing can be done everywhere at Sun Moon Lake. If we were to recommend the best site, it would definitely be the Dajhu Park. Why not come for a spectacular sight of birds during the evenings? You can also enjoy the view of sunset at the same time. According to research, there are as much as up to 120 different bird species in this area. These 120 species belong to 39 different biological families. Amazing, isn't it? |
