Lantern Festival

Lantern Festival, will take place on 21 February 2008. Last in a series of springtime celebrations, this “second New Year” is widely celebrated by families all around Taiwan.

The Taipei Lantern Festival, held annually at Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall Plaza and the largest and most famous of these competitions, is attended every year by thousands of lantern-watchers.

The varied festivities and customs practiced on Lantern Festival not only provide celebrants with rich entertainment, like the historical-theme lantern displays and riddles, but also are instructive, by their expression of ancient wisdom. The variety of splendid lantern features different folk art techniques, impressing these arts deep in the hearts and minds of the people. While you join the IOHA 2008 conference at Taipei, you will feel it's been a worthwhile trip.
