The Sky Lantern Festival is a traditional celebration where participants release lanterns into the night sky. Originating in Taiwan, this festival typically occurs during the Lunar New Year or the Lantern Festival. The lanterns, made of paper and filled with hot air, symbolize the release of worries and the hope for good fortune. During the festival, people often write their wishes on the lanterns before lighting them. As the lanterns ascend, they create a beautiful spectacle, illuminating the sky. The event fosters a sense of community and togetherness, as families and friends gather to share their hopes and dreams.
