Local folk artists captivated audiences with an extravagant display of molten iron “fireworks” on Friday night in north China's Hebei Province, marking Spring Festival. The performance sees molten iron splashed into the air, creating a unique light display known as "Dashuhua". This performance was staged in Nuanquan town, Yuxian county, Zhangjiakou. The town has a history of over 500 years when it comes to "Dashuhua" performances during the Lunar New Year. Performers throw molten iron at a temperature of over 1,000 degrees Celsius at a cold brick wall, creating a breathtaking firework-like display to usher in the Lunar New Year.
