Season 7
Episode 712
Joseph deepens his understanding of Taiwan during the Taiwan Lantern Festival, a Chinese holiday more than 2,000 years old. While the festival showcases the country’s modern, technological side, it also honors its historic customs and traditions. Joseph explores these cultural connections at the national display of lanterns in Hsinchu, by joining in the release of thousands of sky lanterns.
