  Très fréquenté le soir ce temple est en revanche presque désert si vous y venez tôt le matin. Incontournable à Sun Moon Lake.  more »

  Very busy in the evening this temple is on the other hand almost deserted if you come early in the morning. A must-see at Sun Moon Lake.

  Beautiful Taoist temple, rebuild not long ago. The temple is divided in mainly two parts, the front part dedicated to the god Guang Gong (or Guang Yu) and the second to Confucius.  more »

  Been to many temples and I must confess Wenwu was definitely able to impress me. One could spend a lot of time just roaming through this place. Go to the sky deck for a spectacular view. Beautiful temple and be sure to come for the sunset. So beautiful!
