1. Origin of Sun Moon Lake Black Tea

The origin of the name Shui Soalian comes from the territory of aboriginals in Zhanghua’s mountain called Soalian. As Sun Moon Lake is located here, shui (water) was added to form the name Shui Soalian. Assam tea from Ceylon and India is commonly regarded as the best black tea in the world. However, black tea produced in Yuchi Township, Nautou county of Taiwan has undergone continual strain improvements at the Taiwan tea research and extension station since the Japanese occupation. This had made Yuchi Township the leading producer of black tea in Taiwan. Sun Moon Lake has diverse forest forms at mid-to-high altitude, and a fertile and unpolluted filed stratum. In addition to annual temperature average and steady humidity, these elements made the top grade black tea produced in Yuchi Township and the Sun Moon Lake region, renowned as Assam Variety, one of the main teas exported from Taiwan decades ago. It was also offered by the Japanese people to their emperor as royal tribute, and won considerable acclaim alongside Ceylon and Darjeeling black tea on the Western tea market. Its quality and charm is widely accepted and recognized by consumers, making Sun Moon Lake Black tea world famous even today.

2. 921-Earthquake Reconstruction
In the midnight of 21th Sept. 1999, a great earthquake, which was later called as 921 earthquake, struck and woke up everyone in Taiwan. The epicenter was at southwest of Sun Moon Lake, near the town of Jiji, Nantou, causing 2,415 people killed, 11,305 injured, and numerous people being homeless. Top government officials toured the disaster area and gave instructions that world-class re-planning and reconstruction should be carried out to give the lake area a new lease on life. Mountains in the Scenic Area rise from between 600 and 2,000 meters. From the highest ridges in the eastern section, the landscape gradually turns to rippling foothills and then to fast-flowing rivers and sweeping, verdant flatlands in the west. The latter, geographically a part of the Puli Basin, is the only section to preserve an alpine lake. The central location of Sun Moon Lake also means that the bountiful tourism opportunities available in Nantou County are only a short drive away. The area draws tourists from all over the country and its unique attractions are increasingly a magnet for international visitors.
