Itinerary Intro
Shuishe Wharf is the primary boarding point for boat tours on Sun Moon Lake, located beside a bustling hub of hotels, cafes, and shops. Surrounded by lush mountains, it opens to tranquil waters and scenic walking trails like the nearby Hanbi Trail. Morning mist, spectacular sunsets, or a peaceful lakeside stroll—this pier offers a poetic entry into exploring Taiwan’s largest alpine lake. A convenient and atmospheric first stop.
Perched on a hillside overlooking Sun Moon Lake’s north side, Wenwu Temple blends majesty with spiritual depth. Formed in 1938 by merging the former Longfeng Temple and Yihua Hall, it showcases Northern Chinese architectural style and consists of three main halls: the front "Wenyun Hall" honoring the God of Literature, the middle "Wusheng Hall" for Lord Guan and General Yue Fei, and the rear "Dacheng Hall" for Confucius—the only Confucius temple in Taiwan featuring a central entrance. Its red guardian lions stand as iconic sentinels. The temple's terrace grants sweeping lake views—mesmerizing under a crisp blue sky or mist‑shrouded at dawn. Beyond, the "Year‑Stair Path" with its 366 steps symbolizes the days of the year and features 24 solar terms and wish‑ribbons—inviting quiet reflection and cultural discovery.
Located near the Ita Thao pier at Sun Moon Lake, the Ita Thao Shopping District offers a rich blend of indigenous culture, local crafts, and culinary delights. Popular fare includes freshly brewed Sun Moon Lake black tea, grilled mountain boar skewers, shottered millet mochi, and sweet tea-infused snacks—all set against a scenic lakeside backdrop. It’s a place to truly experience the essence and flavors of Sun Moon Lake, not just its views.
