Molten iron lights up evening sky

A folk performance called datiehua (spray molten iron) is given in Qinglong ancient town in Yangqu county, Shanxi province, on Feb 10. The traditional show, dating back to the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476 BC), is a festival celebration in Shanxi. Performers spray molten iron into the sky with specials tools filled with hot iron liquid. The molten iron sparks like fireworks in the air. [Photo/Xinhua]
