On the evening of April 15, crowds of people placed carefully-made water lanterns into the lucid Weiyuan River in Jinggu Dai and Yi Autonomous County, Pu’er, southwest China’s Yunnan Province, creating a scene that resembled a galaxy in the water.
Releasing water lanterns, also known as river lamps, is a traditional folk activity, which was held during this year’s Water Splashing Festival in the county, as a way for people to send their best wishes.
