Floating Paper Lanterns in Chiang Mai

by Amanda Yang

The night sky above Chiang Mai glows with hundreds of glowing paper lanterns drifting upward during the Yee Peng festival. Below, the silhouette of a traditional Lanna temple spire pierces the dark horizon, illuminated by the soft orange light from the floating orbs. Crowds of people gather in the open plaza, their faces lit by the gentle radiance of the lanterns they hold or release. The air is filled with the haze of incense smoke mingling with the cool midnight air. Distant city lights twinkle beneath the celestial display, creating a dense tapestry of light and shadow that defines this annual celebration in Northern Thailand.
