In Sri Lanka, you can find a huge 18-meter lantern that looks like the work of a neural network. However, the lantern is more than real.
The mega-construction was built specifically for Vesak, one of the main Buddhist holidays, during which temples are decorated with traditional lanterns symbolizing enlightenment. The height of this thing is about 20 meters, and most of the parts are movable.
