Taiwan celebrates mid-Autumn by launching hundreds of sky lanterns into the night

The annual Sky Lantern Festival in Chiang Mai, officially known as Yi Peng, is a beautiful event to witness. Not only is it visually stunning, it is also deeply rooted in spiritual symbolism. Releasing a lantern is meant to carry away worries, regrets, and anything weighing you down. As it rises, it represents a fresh start and an open path for new blessings in the year ahead. #chiangmai #lanternfestival #thailandtravel #roamtheplanet #travel | Ryan Costigan
