The flame burns "up" because it is really the hot gasses that are burning and hot gasses rise because they are less dense.

Why does the candle flame stand up right?

The candle flame stands upright due to convection currents created by the heat of the flame. As the wax burns, it produces hot gases that rise, causing cooler air to flow in and replace it. This continuous movement stabilizes the flame and keeps it vertical. Additionally, the shape of the flame, which is broader at the bottom and tapers upwards, also contributes to its upright position.
