Yanshui's Beehive Rockets 鹽水蜂炮









Guess how many rockets are here at this single station?
Hundreds of thousands.
Over the entire festival, millions of bottle rockets are fired.

一個炮城就好幾十萬發蜂炮
一整個活動下來,總共有好幾百萬發蜂炮點燃






My left thigh two days after the festival. Same leg that got hit at the Chen Yunlin protest years ago. Welts and bruises are OK. I'm glad I still have my eyes and can see out of them.

More on the origin of the festival later.
