I heard that when Marco Polo first opened
the
trade routes to China, he was quite impressed with their rockets.
Now, these weren’t quite the fireworks we now know, but they did
shoot into the air, explode and make some pretty
patterns.
Strangely, no matter where he went, there were people who made
fireworks, but he had trouble finding someone to demonstrate them for
him.
“Not here!” they said. …very confusing. Until ol’ Marc came upon
an
ancient military fortification at the community of Chu’Lai. Here,
fireworks were launched every night, and Marc was very
impressed!
But still he wondered, “Why here?” At the end of every week, people
came from great distances, bringing their own fireworks to launch. So
Marco Polo asked his guide why everyone came here to launch their
fireworks.
Marc’s guide replied: “Why honored Sir, … We always set off
fireworks on the Forts of Chu’Lai”
