Light dances on Lotus Pond

"Light dances on Lotus Pond" water lantern performance showcases the fusion of dazzling lighting and temple elements with lively music rhythm, presenting the integration of Eastern and Western cultures, traditions, and modernity, ultimately showing the spirit of Taiwan's diverse and compatible culture.

There are many temples around the Lotus Pond, such as the Dragon and Tiger Pagodas, the Spring and Autumn Pavilions, and the Nine-cornered Bridge, which are impressive tourist spots in Kaohsiung. The Lantern Festival selects representative East-style architecture and deities to be presented in 360 degrees through lighting design. Modern technology and materials complement the beauty of palace-like temples, Dragon and Tiger Pagodas, and other buildings from different angles. Additionally, the design team affixes light beams to the temples with modern technology, forming a unique characteristic of the local temple culture. In this way, the event has a combined Eastern and Western look, creating a visual effect of blending the ancient and the modern. Different from traditional lanterns from previous Lantern Festivals, the event allows people to appreciate the beauty of the Lotus Pond differently, from the beauty of the lanterns to discovering the beauty of life.
