Fireworks galore as Taiwanese celebrate scaled-down festival

It was still given the go-ahead because of the country s low number of coronavirus infections. The Beehive Fireworks Festival in Yanshui, which was held on Friday, is renowned for its noisy and fiery atmosphere. Participants wear motorcycle helmets and thick coats to avoid being injured as the streets are bombarded with fireworks and firecrackers. Held to coincide with the Lantern Festival, which marks the final day of Chinese New Year celebrations, the event had been in doubt due to government worries over Covid-19, though Taiwan has fewer than 30 active cases. But the Tainan government gave it the green light, albeit with fewer revellers permitted.
