TAIPEI (TVBS News) — In anticipation of the influx of tourists for the Fulong International Sand Sculpture Art Festival (福隆沙雕季) during the summer vacation, Taiwan Railway Corp.

The Sand Sculpture Festival, themed "LINE FRIENDS Summer Star Party" (LINE FRIENDS夏日明星派對), kicked off on May 31 and will run until mid-October. It features 45 sand sculptures, including characters such as Brown (熊大) and Cony (兔兔).
