the week long national day holiday which started from oct. i has become not only an occasion for celebrating the birth of the nation but also a time for people to relax. after all, under great pressure every day, everyone longs to slow down and rediscover the real fun of life.
my only hope for the week long holiday was also to relax myself well, instead of playing well. i slept until the sun was shinning above, ate my favorite food which i scarcely have because of their high calorie, and enjoyed different kinds of films from day to night.
usually, i seldom went out during the holidays, as it was too terrible to battle the national day holiday crowds. but this time, i couldn"t resist myself against the performance of music fireworks whose theme was "all colors of music".
as a part of the international music fireworks festival, the performance of music fireworks, designed by the swedish artists, was staged at century park in pudong on the night of october 3.
the scene, a spectacular combination of fireworks exploding in harmony with the music, made powerful visual and audio impact on me. the artists selected for the performance various pieces of music, including classical music by beethoven and strauss, some representative popular compositions such as "my heart will go on". with the music, the fireworks were set off in different formations. i could admire the fireworks in the sky as well as their reflections in the water.
arising from the river surface to the height of 300 meters in the sky, multi-layered and rich colored fireworks formulated an extremely spectacular picture. one of the most eye catchers was that nearly 1000 sparkling pieces of fireworks along the surface of the water formed a red carpet with 80 meters long and 250 meters wide. at the same time, a 10 meter-high waterfall firework rushed downwards the bridge across jingtian lake and simultaneously the red lantern shaped fireworks filled the sky. it really took me on a romantic tour as the fireworks explode.
wish for next chance to see such kind of music fireworks again!
