Lights of Taiwan

The lanterns of Taiwan are among its most beautiful and meaningful traditions, filling streets, temples, and festivals with warm light and vibrant color. They are especially important during celebrations such as the Lantern Festival, when they symbolize hope, good fortune, renewal, and the wish to leave behind the troubles of the past. Whether hanging in temple courtyards or glowing above busy streets, these lights are not only decorative but also deeply connected to memory, belief, and community.
