Fireworks Last weekend I and my friends went to see a fireworks event. It was so beautiful that I'm looking forward to seeing it every summer. Today I'm going to explain about why fireworks are launched in Japan in August. Once upon a time, people in Japan made fire outside their house to see off the souls of their ancestors in August. but these days a lot of fireworks events are held instead of making fire by ourselves. Of course, in some area, traditional styles are still taken over. One of the most famous events is held in Kyoto. Many people watch this event every summer.
