The Night Sky,filled with a Poem of Sparkling Brilliance
Twinkle then disappear firewoks,a poetry of fire or a feast of fire,momentarily drawing a fantasy of flowers in the night sky.Japanese first held fireworks displays in the Edo era(1615-1868).
Loved by young and old,they have come to symbolize the warm festive nights of summer.
Do you know that fireworks copy the national character and traditions of the nation where they are made?
Japanese fireworks are more masculine,more forceful.
And most japanese aerial displays are devised so that they look the same from any angle.
Fireworks are built with skill,experience and fancy;each is made by hand with great care.
They are symbols of peace.
Judging from their delicately changing tints and perfectly appearing shapes,Japanese fireworks are praised for their beauty all over the world.
