Before setting the grass on fire, you can enjoy the huge fireworks.

Special care is taken to assure that the fire will stay on the mountain and it will not reach the city area.

The mountain is burned for hours, so people can see the elevation from across the city.

Sky Lantern Festival, China

Sky lantern festival is a special festival in China that was originated 2000 years ago.

Way back when the Chinese villages were attacked, most of the locals used to hide in the mountains to save their lives.

Once the villages were safe, the Chinese soldiers would light the lantern in the air to let the villagers know that it is time to come back home.
