Since the Chinese New Year celebration began about 2 weeks ago, the periodic boom of distant fireworks has never really ceased. Today, on the other hand, there has been a constant roar from every alley in the city. Shijiazhuang today really does remind me of a warzone. All day today they have been setting off those massive fireworks that don't really have any color or anything but just make a huge blast. Anyhow, from what I could find really quick online, apparently today is the 15th and final day of celebrations for the holiday so everyone is shooting off everything they have. Its just getting dark so I expect that it will just get crazier from here.
Its also amazing just walking around the city because through the rows and rows of apartments buildings the echo of the bangs keep going.
