Flying chicken, they slept on the tree.
Our hostel's owner explaining the types of plant they harvest in sun moon lake, this particular one he is talking about is tea tree.
The Japanese who bring in Aasam tea leave from India to Sun Moon Lake. I tried their modified version of Assam tea from sun moon lake, it is more mild, more suitable for our liking.
