Sky lanterns

　　Modern people often release sky lanterns as a way to make wishes. People of all ages write down their blessings and hopes by hand, symbolizing a bountiful harvest, success, and happiness year after year. On an open riverside, lift the lantern’s casing from the top, insert the prepared solid fuel into the wire at the bottom of the lantern and secure it. Light the solid fuel, and the flickering flame quickly heats the air inside the lantern, making it lighter. The lantern’s casing begins to expand and become buoyant. At this moment, slowly release the lantern, and a beautiful, auspicious sky lantern carrying your wishes and blessings rises magically from your hands… Seize this moment to make a wish—ask for love, marriage, career success, or health… The sky lantern is a symbol of good fortune and blessings.
