That was an extravagant Dragon Lantern Show, and it was nice to see the illuminated lanterns on display! 🐉😍 I appreciate your viewer, Tim, for mentioning about this Lantern Festival. Thank you for sharing this enchanting experience, AK! 🤗

[@ActionKid]

Glad you enjoyed it! I really enjoyed this Lantern Festival

[@susanboatman7913]

Another excellent video, amazing celebration in Taipei.

[@ActionKid]

Thank you very much

[@iiskomalasari2597]

46:25 beautiful 👍
March 1, I want to come here to see the lanterns

[@susanboatman7913]

Hi everyone

[@ActionKid]

[@kenkhwong]

I just visited the River Hongbao in Singapore and they have all that illuminated lanterns on display. And a large lantern dragon was spanning around the Supertrees of Gardens by the Bay.

[@monica-NJ-123]

Thank you AK , beautiful lanterns , would be nice if we could have lantern festivals in the USA 😍🎏🏮

[@ActionKid]

You’re welcome! I’ve been to lantern festivals in the USA but they’re usually not as organized

[@crystals6352]

Absolutely beautiful!!

[@ActionKid]

Thank you so much!

[@deborahs.9389]

Dishes done Ribs seasoned and in the oven! Perfect time to watch a tour Epic!🐼

[@ActionKid]

Sounds great!

[@tim39183]

Really glad you visited! Basically, many major cities in Taiwan host their own Lantern festival events every year around the Lantern Festival holiday, and the most well-known ones are Taiwan Lantern Festival (held by different city or county every year), Taipei Lantern Festival (more famous than other regional events because it’s at the capital of Taiwan) and PingXi lantern Festival, which features spectacular sky lantern events! Also, I’m surprised that it’s hard to find information in English for these regional lantern festivals and almost all information is only available in Chinese, quite a shame! Especially this one at New Taipei Metropolitan Park, because it’s just right next to airport line and people on the trains could easily spot these lights, and visitors to Taipei definitely want to know what it is and might even give it a visit!
BTW, the main exhibition of Taiwan lantern festival starts next Saturday next to HSR Tainan station, I think this section could be more active and popular than AnPing area!

[@ActionKid]

Thank you so much for the recommendation and the info!

[@davidellis5141]

The ActionKid is tempted to pause for some of the delicious 😋 treats for sale but stays focused on his completing his walk 👣 ! He will snack later. 🐼

It does look like a Disney park! Costco may have helped to sponsor this festival.
