The Pingxi Sky Lantern Festival is an annual Lantern Festival held in Pingxi District, New Taipei City. In recent years, it has developed into a well-known festival in Taiwan. It is as famous as the Saltwater Bee Pao. Sky lanterns have become one of the symbols of Pingxi. There are many vendors selling sky lanterns on Pingxi Old Street and Shifen Old Street. Each one costs about NT$100. When you buy it, you can directly use the store's frame and the pen prepared by the store to write down prayers and wishes on the sky lanterns. When you take it to the railway, ask the shop owner to spread out the oil paper and fix it on the bottom of the sky lantern. The sky lantern will expand immediately after ignition. At this time, you need to take pictures quickly, as the sky lantern will get hotter and hotter. It feels good to have sky lanterns on the railways, but pay special attention to the trains.
