Climbing to the top of the Ci'en Pagoda offers a panoramic view of Sun Moon Lake. On clear days, the picturesque scenery of the lake and mountains against the blue sky is truly captivating. Additionally, the pagoda has an internal staircase, allowing visitors to ascend layer by layer, experiencing a sense of spiritual cleansing as they approach the sky.
