We only spent 1 night at Sun Moon Lake. Although the lake view is beautiful to a city dweller like me, I must confessed that there was nothing much to do. It could also be that we only had a morning to tour the place.
Nevertheless, we took the ferry to Itashao Pier (伊达邵码头) so as to ride on the Sun Moon Lake cable car or ropeway. Nothing really fantastic about the cable car ride but you get to see the lake at a different angle.
One interesting thing did happened during our short stay. There is an ice cream parlour, Dolce Luna (甜月亮) at our hotel selling gelato. We found out that the owner of the parlour actually knows Wu Pao Chun, the World Champion Baker!

Suggestion:
For those who are going to take the cable car and have time to spend, you may want to go to the Formosa Aboriginal Culture Village (九族文化村). It is a theme park that introduces the 9 aboriginal groups in Taiwan.
