Take the MRT to MRT Zuoying Station, then follow the sign to Exit 2 Lotus Pond. The bus RED 51 won't stop for long as the station is the first and also last stop along its route. It goes round and round, unless that driver is on his last shift.
It is a huge tourist site. If you plan to...

I'm shocked that this isn't higher up on the attractions list. I spent the day here with my husband and it was a very relaxing and interesting walk around the lake. I noticed that a lot of people wrote reviews that there were no Lotuses, but in early December 2012, there were plenty of them. The coolest part were all...

Very pleasant and interesting. The temples on the lake are modern and quite brash. Those in the streets nearby are older and worth looking at.

Dont be fooled by the name of the place. There is no lotus in sight, but a calm lake where I saw some people do water sports such as wakeboarding and water skiing.
There are many temples surrounding the lake with magnificent structures, great for the photo-enthusiasts or those into the Chinese/ Buddhist/ Taoist culture.
The lake isnt too large...

There is no lotus seen during visit, perhaps due to World Games 2009. Only people fishing at the lake, but there are temples around. Visit the Confucius Temple nearby, and you can see the Dragon and Tiger Pagodas and Taoist God Statue from far away.

Maybe it was wrong timing when I visited, the lake was empty - no lotus in sight. Anyhow, it was a relaxing to sit by the lake and enjoyed the local fruits. However, the pagodas over the lake were great art pieces constructed with very good craftsmanship.

It's worth to spend at least half a day touring around the so called "Lotus Lake". There are a few attraction spots around the lake and you should not missed it.
I wanted to ride on the Amphibian Bus but unfortunately the ticket was all sold out! Do remember to book earlier and check the operating hours and day. The...

This is a man-made lake in the north of Kaohsiung. Nice for sight seeing and photos, especially on a clear day. There are several attractions in the area, so you can spend a couple of hours or a whole afternoon there. The Zuoying train and MRT station is somewhat nearby. To the south is the Zouying Old City and Turtle...
