The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) staged a spectacular fireworks display on Thursday to celebrate the 77th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, bringing together local residents and tourists from home and abroad to share the festive joy.
On Thursday evening, crowds packed both sides of the Victoria Harbor to watch an eight-part fireworks show.
The 23-minute spectacle featured 31,888 fireworks shells, offering an audiovisual feast that expressed collective wishes for the country's prosperity and peace. Set to majestic music, green and blue fireworks lit up the night sky in an ode to the nation's landscapes, while golden rings resembling intersecting orbits showcased cosmic wonders.
Awestruck crowds cheered and recorded the display, with many lingering afterward to stroll, take more photos, and basked in the jubilant mood.
The grand spectacle resonated deeply across Hong Kong's business and financial sectors, inspiring strong confidence in the future of both the country and the region.
