“LIGHT UP THE FUTURE”: 2023 Taiwan Lantern Festival in Taipei
The Taiwan Lantern Festival is a celebration of blessings that has been held for 34 years during the Lunar New
Year. The full moon carries ours hopes and dreams for the future. Since 2001, the Taiwan Lantern Festival has been held
in different cities across Taiwan, and it is returning to Taipei after 23 years, where it was first held.
After experiencing the challenges caused from COVID-19, we have begun to learn to live with the virus and started to
reconnect with the world at our own pace.
This is the first large-scale international event after the end of the epidemic. For the first time, the “urban”
lantern festival will be held in the Taipei metropolitan area. With the theme of "LIGHT UP THE FUTURE", 12
administrative districts are connected in series, among which 4 major exhibition areas are set up, and more than 300
works are exhibited. The works integrate the Taiwan Lantern Festival with the city.
The main lantern of the 2023 Taiwan Lantern Festival is a 22-meter-high rabbit-themed lantern. The main light
show displays the work through a 360-degree turntable, providing a new and different experience to the visitors.
The four major exhibition areas are:
“Beacons of Light Display Zone” is in the commercial area in east district, “Fount of Light Display Zone” is in
Songshan Cultural and Creative Park, and “Lights of the Future Display Zone” is in the business district of Xinyi District.
“Central Display Zone” spans the National Dr. Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall (north zone) and Taipei City Hall Square
(south zone), where the main light is set.
The 2023 Taiwan Lantern Festival came to an end on February 19. During the Lantern Festival, more than 12
million people visited, breaking the previous record. The next 2024 Taiwan Lantern Festival will be held in Tainan. Are
you looking forward to it like I am? Resource from Kang Shan Reading Materials

Uluru: More Than Just a Rock
One of Australia’s most famous landmarks is Uluru. It’s a giant rock in the middle of the country. It’s rich in
culture, history, and magic. Uluru is 348 meter high, almost four kilometers long, and more than two kilometers
wide. Uluru’s size makes it hard to miss. Another thing is its color. The red rock changes color with the sun. It can
appear yellow, orange, pink, and more.
Uluru is very important to Aboriginal Australians. They believe their ancestors created the rock and the land
around it. They also believe Uluru is alive and home to their ancestors spirits.
In the 1930s, visitors started coming to Uluru. Soon, it became a popular spot which attracts almost every visitor
to Australia. Shortly after, many visitors climbed up the rock, and that made the aboriginal people sad and angry.
However, their pain is now over. In October 2019, Australia put a new rule in place. Visitors couldn’t climb Uluru
anymore. That’s good for Aboriginal Australians and for Uluru.

The Moai on Easter Island
Rapa Nui, or Easter Island, is 2,200 miles away from Chile in the Pacific Ocean. Although it is not easy to
reach, the famous and mysterious moai on this faraway island have made it one of the most popular World Heritage
Sites.
There are around 1,000 moai dotting the island. They were made by the people of Rapa Nui between 1400 and
1650 A.D. We are not sure why the Rapa Nui built the moai. Some people believe that they were built to honor the
islanders’ ancestors or other important people. Most moai face the center of the island. The Rapa Nui believe that
moai watch over and protect them.
Every year, the moai draw around 100,000 people to this island. This is good for business, but it also brings
some problems. Some tourists know little about the Rapa Nui, and they do not show respect to them. For example,
people take photos in which it looks like they are picking a moai’s nose. On top of that, some tourists have climbed on
the statues and even damaged them.
That's why the islanders get very angry with those tourists that do not respect their cultural heritage.
Traveling to Easter Island lets tourists enjoy many wonderful experiences. However, everyone needs to understand
that they are guests. So, it is important to respect the local culture. If everyone can do this, they get to enjoy their trips
without making trouble for the locals. Resource from Nanyi B6 L3 Reading
