Light show attracts thousands to Chinese town

A Chinese town is hosting a light show, in which 50 million LED beads are lit up to form various scenes centered on seven themes.

The show is held in a town of 5,000 people in east China. More than 20,000 visitors have so far enjoyed the light show, which includes themes such as the Milky Way, the Eiffel Tower, and Mount Fuji.

Visitors can smell the fragrance of lotus, daisy, and even the fertile soil, while walking in the area. The organizers believe there is more to the show than the light display.

They say residents of the town want to show through the month-long event that they have worked hard to change their status from being poor to being well-off. They have achieved the change through diversifying their agricultural activities.
