Like the Chinese Lanterns or Thai Lanterns used in those countries celebrations, these Sky Lanterns are a beautiful & fascinating way to light up the sky that's becoming increasingly popular throughout the world for any kind of event. Flying Lanterns are traditionally known as " Khom Fay" or " Khom Loy" in China & have been used for nearly two thousand years. It was believed that wishes written on lanterns would rise up to the heavens & come true.
So, what are they & how do they work? Basically they're a large paper lantern made from flame-retardant, 100% bio-degradable materials & is wire free. All you do is light the wick suspended beneath & in about thirty seconds the lantern will be filled with hot air; then all you do is watch them soar. Stand by for an amazing visual display!
