This is where my grandfather and grandmother are interred. It is an air force burial ground. The building is where ww2 vets, in particular, and their spouses, are interred.

They drift off into the night, and look like tiny stars in the distance.

It really looks like they are ascending into heaven. They slowly fade into the distance, before they burn out of fuel and fall to the ground

Do not worry about pollution: pingxi is the only place on Taiwan where these lanterns are allowed, and special clean up teams track the lanterns by the direction of wind to pick them up.
If any are missed, an offered bounty means most are then picked up. The vendors keep track of each lantern sold so they always know how many are missing.

It is already late, but the area is famous for its beauty.
It tends to be quite foggy, and has a gentle drizzle almost all the time. Very moody
