The night sky is almost a canvas. A black canvas on which nature paints her paintings. As a rule, they attract the views of people who are not indifferent to the mysterious beauty of the universe. Sometimes the calm and pacified beauty of the starry sky was replaced by the stormy passions of the earthly elements, embodying on it passion, unpredictability and even frightening fragility. Despite this, the man, still frozen, gazed up at the sky. And in his imagination plans arose.
China
It is generally accepted that China is the birthplace of fireworks. And this happened somewhere in the 12th century AD. According to some assumptions, pieces of green bamboo exploding in the fire of a bonfire (in this way they scared away evil spirits) became the progenitors of fireworks. The invention of gunpowder brought new opportunities. And the New Year during the reign of Emperor Yu-Sun was celebrated in a new way. Gunpowder was poured into the stems of bamboo. Thousands of such stems were thrown into a fire under the words of the ruler: "Let the night be day."
Europe
By the fifteenth century, Italy and Germany had their own pyrotechnic schools, and every European country had traditions in creating fireworks. The art of creating fireworks developed rapidly, and today it has become one of the most beloved and attractive shows or, as they say today, a show.
Who is sweetest in the world?
For some time, holding colorful events with the use of fireworks has turned from just a beautiful sight to some kind of unspoken competitive process. And entire states that can afford it do not spare any strength, and, all the more, means to get the palm. But, believe me, strength and money will not be thrown to the wind with the last flashes in the night sky. The championship in this competition will attract even more tourists who will strive with all their might to get to this spectacle next year. So where can one watch the most beautiful fireworks in the world?
New Year in all its glory
Either in honor of a long-standing Chinese tradition, or simply by virtue of honoring this holiday, the celebration of the New Year for many countries is an opportunity to demonstrate the latest achievements and amaze the imagination of the whole world! Many people remembered the 2014 meeting in Dubai because of the grandiose fireworks. Eclipsing all his predecessors that day, he could fully claim the title of the most beautiful salute in the world, as you can see by looking at the photo. Everything was striking: both scale and variety. More than four hundred fireworks scattered in the night sky of the Emirate declared themselves claiming to be in the Guinness Book of Records. And not without reason. After all, they exceeded the scale of the Kuwaiti Golden Fireworks at times. A photo of the most beautiful salute in the world is presented below.
The length of positions for launching fireworks was approximately one hundred kilometers! You must admit that all this is impressive with only numbers, and it is difficult to imagine the emotions of people watching this spectacle. Six minutes of a varied fiery feast culminated! In the sky flaunted a huge flag of the United Arab Emirates, painted by fire! We can add that this action cost the creators six million dollars.
But this year was no exception. The most beautiful fireworks in the world in 2018 - again goes to the UAE piggy bank.
Light and Music
February-March are the time of the Philippine music festival.
Representatives from all over the world from China to the United States of America flock to it to demonstrate their outstanding skill and to decorate the gulf sky with the most beautiful fireworks in the world. Fascinating musical compositions enhance perception, giving the spectacle a magical color! The combination of diversity allows us to call this festival one of the most beautiful in the world.
The festival in Montreal, gathering more than three million spectators from around the world, is held in the summer and can even compete with the Filipino.
Australia
The most beautiful fireworks in the world can be seen in the New Year's sky over Sydney. The excitement preceding the event is akin to the Oscars. Everything is kept secret, with the exception of the venue. It is always invariable, and it is the Gulf of Sydney. Over 10-12 minutes, approximately a million viewers have the opportunity to enjoy a light show accompanied by music, as is customary in recent times.
The best of the best
It is pleasant to note that the salute in honor of the end of World War II in the forty-fifth year of the last century in Moscow is considered to be the most powerful, but it does not belong to the category of holiday fireworks. Also in the ranks of the “most” are fireworks in the USA, introduced in 1992 and called the “Fiery Sun”. The spectacle of a fireball, the diameter of which was more than fifteen meters and hung in the sky for several minutes. And in Malaysia in 1988, a firework was launched under the name "Rattlesnake", which probably was not longer and will not be soon. A six-kilometer “snake” illuminated the sky for almost ten hours.
Where is the best?
And yet, where was the most beautiful salute in the world? It is rather difficult to answer this question. Indeed, although there are many criteria, the most important one will always be subjective. I would like to introduce you to the top 10 most beautiful fireworks in the world. But each of them is a unique sight. And we can proudly say that the most beautiful salute was launched in Russia on the closing day of the Winter Olympic Games in Sochi in 2014. The majestic spectacle made millions breathless watching the show on TV screens. Patriotism momentarily instilled in the hearts of our inhabitants. And let the Americans, the Chinese and all those who consider their fireworks better argue with us. Let them argue.
