Introduction

-Moon Bay is one of the three famous bays in Kanas, surrounded by two mountains, with a slow-flowing river forming a curved crescent-shaped river bay, hence the name Moon Bay. -The mountains are covered with primitive forests, with dense trees soaring into the sky, while the grassy meadow is located on the river bay platform, lush and verdant. -The water in Moon Bay has a splendid color due to the high difference in lake bottom and changes in light, attracting photographers to come and take pictures. The observation deck is the best spot for taking photos, and tourists can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the wooden walkway along the way. -Holy Spring is a scenic spot near Moon Bay. The spring water is rich in minerals, but those with sensitive stomachs need to be careful when drinking it.
