The legend of Lalu is that the Yi's highest ancestor was the residence of the Yi people and one of the early Yi people. Now the land is well protected to commemorate the Yi people's ancestors, and Lalu is located near the center of the Sun Moon Lake.
Lalu Island is a small island in Sun Moon Lake, quite small, and now there are some trees on it. You can see it when you take a Sun Moon Lake cruise. This island puts the water of the pool on both sides, Sun Lake and Moon Lake, in fact, the visual effect is not very obvious.
日月潭中间的小岛,远看好像浮在水面上的一颗珠子,所以被叫做“珠子屿”,现在也叫“拉鲁岛”。传说邹族的圣灵就居住在岛上,以“拉鲁岛”为界,湖的北半部分圆圆的像太阳,湖的男半部分弯弯的像月牙,这就是日月潭名字的来源。
拉鲁岛在日月潭水库中央,是重要的地标,邵族语是“心中圣岛”之意,为邵族人的早期居住地,邵族的祖灵地,也可称之为光华岛。从水社聚落向南眺望,可以看见拉鲁岛在日月潭中心位置。从玄光寺向北眺望,就是一个很小的无人岛,上面长满了绿色植被。以此岛为界,东面是日潭,西面是月潭。
There is an island in Sun Moon Lake, which looks like a bead floating on the water from a distance, so it is called "Bead Island" and now also called Lalu Island. With this island as the boundary, the northern half of the lake is round like the sun, and the southern half of the lake is curved like crescent moon. This is the source of the name of Sun Moon Lake. There are three important marks on Lalu Island: the eggplant elm, the white deer statue, and the wood carving owl.
