Liuyang, China’s fireworks capital, just staged a celestial spectacle that left thousands breathless! A golden cascade of pyrotechnics erupted into a blazing crimson sun during Thursday night’s show – a symbolic rebirth celebrating innovation in traditional arts. 🔥
🌕 'This isn’t just fireworks – it’s poetry in motion,' said local designer Zhang Wei, whose team spent 6 months perfecting the 90-second solar illusion using AI-powered launch systems. The display coincides with Liuyang’s annual Cultural Innovation Week, drawing over 50,000 visitors this year.
📸 Social media exploded with #FireworkSun clips, while historians noted the motif echoes ancient Huayan Buddhist sun symbolism. 'It’s like a TikTok trend meeting 1,000-year-old traditions,' laughed tourism official Li Ming.
With Liuyang producing 60% of the world’s fireworks, this light revolution proves even ancient crafts can shine bright in 2025. 💥 Next show: December’s Winter Solstice edition!
