Sun Moon Lake

Sun Moon Lake is the largest freshwater body in Taiwan. But if you've ever been to Panajachel, Guatemala, it is a giant overdeveloped let down.
The lake is great if you prefer a theme park to actual nature. For some reason 'lakehouse' and 'skyscraper' don't go hand in hand in my mind...even if they are some of the most opportunistic sky scrapers around.
The most interesting feature of the lake is the color of the water itself. I'm guessing that limestone from the surrounding mountains gives the water it's unique turquoise hue
