An Awesome Floating Lantern, Made From 7,000 Plastic Bottles
The recyclable orb will float in a pool in Hong Kong and will mimic the phases of the moon.
In Honk Kong, four local designers have built a giant lantern of recycled plastic bottles and LED lights.
The giant ball of light is meant to celebrate the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival on September 19. Titled "Rising Moon," the illuminated sculpture measures 65.5 feet by 33 feet and sits on a pool of water in Victoria Park. It symbolizes conservation and vitality.
