Tou Sha is a small village located in the southwest of Sun Moon Lake. The elevation is approximately 640-670 meters, about 80 meters lower than Sun Moon Lake, featuring a very flat terrain perfect for cycling. The starting point of this cycling path is along National Highway 21. The Tou Sha Basin has an area of merely over 2 square kilometers, with a flat landscape. Expansive green fields, flocks of egrets, and rustic farmhouses together create a beautiful rural scenery. Pedaling leisurely through the country roads brings a tranquil and delightful experience. The most famous crop in Tou Sha is the bottle gourd, cultivated on the largest area. From June to August each year, bright yellow blooms of gourds can be seen in full display. Additionally, a month earlier in early summer, fields of golden needle flowers also flourish in the Tou Sha Basin, dyeing the entire field with a vibrant orange tint. No matter where you stand, you can snap stunning and picturesque photos like the ones popular among social media influencers! Along the Tou Sha cycling path, you can also observe ancient laundry fields used by the grandfathers, grandpas, and grandmas. Want to know how people used to gather together, chatting casually while doing laundry by the riverbank? Don’t miss these three historical laundry areas when you visit! During the summer season, if you want to escape the crowded tourist sites at Sun Moon Lake, bring your bicycle and explore this quiet village. Slow down your pace and immerse yourself in the most authentic and heartwarming rural charm!
