July 4th, or Independence Day, is one of the most important national holidays in the United States. On this day, Americans celebrate the nation's independence and freedom in various ways. Watching fireworks is undoubtedly one of the most grand and ritualistic ways to celebrate.
From the colonial period, fireworks have been associated with major celebrations in the United States. In the early days, fireworks were mainly used for military celebrations and important public events. Over time, setting off fireworks gradually evolved into a celebration activity involving the entire population, especially on Independence Day.
Today, large-scale fireworks displays are held across the United States on Independence Day. These displays are usually held in the evening, often in open spaces such as city parks, squares, and stadiums. The scale of the fireworks displays varies; some are small community events, while others are large-scale city or even national events, with grand and colorful scenes attracting countless people to watch.
The types of fireworks displays are also diverse, including not only traditional fireworks but also many technologically advanced special effects fireworks, such as ever-changing colors, various patterns of shapes, and fireworks shows that change with the rhythm of music, which are breathtaking.
Watching fireworks has also become a family activity. Many families bring their family and friends, sit on the ground, and share this unforgettable moment. At the same time, many people bring snacks, drinks, etc., enjoying the fireworks while chatting with family and friends, enjoying the warm atmosphere.
For Americans, watching Independence Day fireworks is not just watching a performance, but a cultural experience, an important way for them to express their patriotism, commemorate history, and celebrate freedom, and has become one of their most unforgettable memories of the year.
