- 2019, STEVEN CROOK, “YANSHUI A Little Town That Charms”, in Travel in Taiwan, page 48:
- A rural district in the far north of Tainan City, the town of Yanshui is mainly known for the Yanshui Beehive Fireworks Festival. For the local faithful this is an important religious ritual; for the young and daring, however, it is more of a crazy thrill. Except for this event, Yanshui is quite and peaceful for most of the year, which is good news if you come to explore the town's old streets and alleys.
- 2023 February 4, Ssu-jui Yang, Sean Lin, “Tainan Yanshui Beehive Festival kicks off”, in Focus Taiwan[1], archived from the original on 2023-02-04, Culture[2]:
- The Beehive Fireworks Festival in Tainan's Yanshui District kicked off Saturday, with the event set to reach its climax on Sunday evening when participants with proper protective gear will be able to "bathe" in the exploding fireworks.
