About This Webcam
Everything you need to know about this live stream
A Tranquil Mountain Reservoir
Back Cihu (ๅพๆ ๆน, literally Rear Compassion Lake) is a small, calm reservoir tucked into the wooded hills of Daxi District, southeast of the busy lowlands. Sheltered on every side by steep green ridges, its basin holds remarkably still, reflective water.
Forested Slopes & Mirror Waters
The camera frames a wall of subtropical broadleaf forest tumbling down to the waterline, where ferns, palms and tangled vines crowd the bank. On calm days the lake becomes a near-perfect mirror, doubling the canopy in its glassy surface.
A Historic Scenic Reserve
Long a restricted military zone linked to the nearby Cihu presidential retreat, Back Cihu was reopened as a protected eco-scenic area. Boardwalks and shaded trails now loop the shoreline, prized for birdlife and quiet walks.
What You'll See on the Live Cam
A timber lakeside boardwalk anchors the foreground, leading the eye across the water to the forested far shore. Watch for ripples and drifting reflections over one of Taoyuan's most peaceful corners.
