Sebastian CMay 2, 2015Packed most of the time. Walk further down to the station to get less crowded scene for photo. The lantern would fly too far and drop within few km. check out a small shoes shop nearby for surprise!Upvote23DownvoteUpvoted Feb 16
Angeline TeohNovember 21, 2018Famous for releasing wishing lanterns, looks great during the night as the sky is light up with lanterns, however not so encourage to release it as it pollutes the environment.

Terence LeeDecember 17, 2012If you are visiting the waterfall, be sure to reach the waterfall gate before 3pm because it closes at 4. It's a 30min walk from the sky lantern shops, or about 5 min by car, taxi or rented scooter.Upvote11Downvote- Shelley LeeMay 22, 2019A small town earned 10x than others! A popular place among tourists and always crowded regardless weekdays or weekends. A must go place when visiting Taiwan.UpvoteDownvote

Omid HeshmatiniaJuly 16, 2023Sky Lantern is prohibited in many places. It's one of the few places you can still fly one. Enjoy the experience.UpvoteDownvote- EricMarch 5, 2017Packed during the yearly lantern festivals. Grab a seat hours early and don't leave!UpvoteDownvote
Richard CookNovember 4, 2014The lanterns are huge. You could write a novel on them. Light them up and watch them float away.UpvoteDownvote
Shn JuayNovember 7, 2013Better to do sky lantern at pingxi old street (1 train stop before shifen)- less touristy less crowded better photo opportunities!Upvote1Downvote

- Alice SeoyeonMay 25, 2015Very crowded but all staffs understand what we should do. Just do what they say. It costs 150 to 200 for flying away your own lantern.UpvoteDownvote
