Drunken Moon Lake, Lake in National Taiwan University campus, Daan, Taiwan
Drunken Moon Lake sits within the National Taiwan University campus and is surrounded by walking paths and grassy areas. The water creates a calm space in the middle of the busy university grounds.
The name comes from how moonlight bounces off the water in a special way on quiet nights. This visual effect led people to give the lake its poetic name.
Students and faculty gather by the lake during the Mid-Autumn Festival to observe the moon together in a traditional celebration. The reflecting water becomes a natural setting where people share this cultural moment.
The lake is open all day without any entrance fee and has walking paths for exploring. Visitors with mobility concerns should know that some areas may be hard to reach.
The water shows different mirror effects throughout the day as the sun and moon move across the sky. These changing reflections give the lake a different appearance with each visit.
