According to legend, the discovery of Sun Moon Lake was attributed to a magical deer: 300 years ago, 40 mountain people in Chiayi County collectively went out hunting and found a huge white deer running northwest, so they followed. They chased for three days and nights, and the white deer disappeared into the forest. The mountain people searched in the mountains for three days and nights. On the fourth day, when they crossed the mountain forest, they were suddenly enlightened. In the mountains and green forests, the school of Bicheng Lake quietly shines with sapphire blue light on sunny days, just like a pure baby nestled in its mother's arms and slept soundly. The villagers also found that there was a round island with dense trees in the clear water, which divided the Great Lake into two halves. The semicircle is like the sun, and its water is red; Half is like a new moon, and the water is clear. So they call this big lake "Sun Moon Lake" and that small island "Zhu Zaiyu". They found that there are abundant water plants and dense forests here, which are suitable for farming and hunting, so they decided to move the whole society here. The leading tribal leader is the ancestor of Mao, the leader of Cao clan today.

To visit Sun Moon Lake, if you take the shuttle bus from Chiayi, it only takes more than an hour. There are sightseeing roads around the lake, and the roadside is shaded by trees, which is suitable for walking and rest.
