A total of 20 installations have been lit up along the Wannian Creek in Pingtung City for the annual Pingtung Festival of Lights, according to the local authorities.
Despite more than a dozen domestically transmitted COVID-19 cases in Taoyuan that led to cancellations of lantern festivals across Taiwan, the southern county went ahead with a scaled-back event that opened on Friday, the Pingtung County Information and International Affairs Department said in a statement.
Several of the lanterns displayed in a 1-kilometer section of the creek between Shengli East Road and Minsheng Road shared the floral theme of this year's festival, which first started in 2017, the department said.
