The sky lantern is one of the most colorful folk cultures in northern Taiwan and has been voted as the "World's Second Largest Festive Carnival" by Discovery.

As present, sky lantern release has symbolized the activity of praying for blessings, several sky lanterns can now be seen decorating the sky of Pingxi even on normal days!
The origin of the sky lantern in Pingxi is that in the early Qing Dynasty, there were bandits in Pingxi and Tsien areas, and because of the mountainous area, the villagers fled to the mountains, and after the bandits left, those who remained in the village cast sky lanterns at night as a signal to inform the villagers who had taken refuge in the mountains that they could go home, and also as a way to report peace to the villagers.
