In Taipei's bustling streets, a man carefully selects Chinese Lunar New Year decorations from a shop. Among them are red firecrackers symbolizing good luck and warding off evil spirits for the year ahead. Meanwhile, in makeshift fireworks factories around the world, workers diligently cover firecrackers with gunpowder. Their skilled hands ensure that each explosion will dazzle spectators during festive celebrations like New Year's Eve or Diwali. In Katunayake's factory, an employee loads containers with meticulously crafted firecrackers. These small packages hold immense power to light up skies and fill hearts with joy when ignited. During cultural events like Taiwan's Beehive Fireworks Festival, participants don motorcycle helmets as they willingly subject themselves to being sprayed by cascades of colorful firecrackers.
