Taipei Lantern Festival 🧨
Lantern festivals are held in various parts of Taiwan around January 15th of the lunar calendar. Taipei has also started!
When you think of a lantern, you might think of a lantern that ignites and flies into the sky, but there are also lanterns that glow with lights.
The main lantern this time was a UFO-shaped lantern. 💫💫
There are also balloons and lanterns created by students, which brightly colors the night in Taipei.
