Wushantou Reservoir Scenic Area (Coral Lake)
Coral Lake is at the border of Guantian and Liu Chia. The lake is formed with the convergence of over 30 rivers. A reservoir was built here in 1920, which was the largest reservoir construction at that time. There are over 100 isles in the lake. The designer of the reservoir was a Japanese, who was sent to Southeast Asia by the army. After World War II, his wife drowned herself in the reservoir. There is a statue of the Japanese engineer by the reservoir. The reservoir has a special structure and the water flowing out of the reservoir forms a beautiful waterfall. On the left of the waterfall is Kuo Min Hotel, in the back of which is a camping site. Beside the lake is Chung Cheng Park, which is on top of a hill. The park overlooks the lake and the mountains beyond. Nearby the lake is temple worshipping the Goddess of Mercy and the Sakyamuni Buddha. |
