2025 Pingxi Sky Lantern Festival-The most romantic wish in the night sky

This year during the Lantern Festival (2/12), I had the opportunity to participate in the Pingxi Sky Lantern Festival, which is a very famous traditional event in Taiwan. It is also known as "Sky Lanterns in the North and Beehive Fireworks in the South" and is as famous as the Yanshui Beehive Fireworks in Tainan! The safety measures on site were very reassuring, with the fire truck parked directly next to the platform on standby! ✨The light of dreams shining in the night sky It was my first time to see the Sky Lantern Festival and I was really shocked! Although the weather was not very good this time, with just a drizzle at the beginning and the rain getting heavier as the night went on, and even some sky lanterns were unable to be launched smoothly due to being wet, but when hundreds of sky lanterns slowly floated up to the night sky, the scene was still incredibly beautiful! 🌍 Full of tourists, very lively! There were so many people coming this time, especially foreign tourists, and the scene was packed! The projection screen was almost blocked by the crowd, so we could only listen to the host’s introduction, but the atmosphere was really great. Everyone was waiting excitedly for the sky lanterns to take off, and it felt like all the wishes of the audience flew into the night sky together. 🌧️It's worth experiencing, but remember to be prepared! Although there were a lot of people and the weather was unstable, it was still worth a visit overall! If I have the chance to come again next time, I will definitely reserve a spot early and bring rain gear. To experience Taiwan’s unique Lantern Festival atmosphere, the Pingxi Sky Lantern Festival is definitely not to be missed! #Valentine's Day 2025 #Pingxi #Pingxi Sky Lantern #Sky Lantern #Shifen #Prayer
