- Centre Introduction
Located in the central of Taiwan, Sun Moon Lake is a famous scenic area since 1900s. This gigantic lake hidden in the mountains always amazes travelers by its serenity and beauty. Beyond its beauty, the functionality of this lake is astonishing. Not only being the biggest hydroelectricity in Taiwan, but it also provided 60% of total electricity in Taiwan back in 1940s. For advocating the importance of environmental education, the administration certified this lake and its lakeside as Sun Moon Lake Environmental Education Center.
One of the unique spots is Xiangshan Visitor Center. Designed by Dan Norihiko, it represents the harmony between nature and human. Throughout the canopy design and the curved outline, the designer turns this building into a hill-like landscape instead of a boxy building. Furthermore, the energy-saving, air circulation and rain collection system let the entire visitor center become a cozy environment despite the weather outside. It realizes the dream that people can live with nature, not against it.
