TAIWAN
My second postcard from Taiwan. The view is of Sun Moon Lake. From Wikipedia, Sun Moon Lake is the largest body of water in Taiwan as well as a tourist attraction. Situated in Yuchih, Nantou, the area around the Sun Moon Lake is home to the Thao tribe, one of the aboriginal tribes in Taiwan. Sun Moon Lake surrounds a tiny island called Lalu. The east side of the lake resembles a sun while the west side resembles a moon, hence the name. This photo link will take you to some other photos I found on-line; it looks spectacular.
Thanks poet for the card (TW-214198).
