Sun Tzu, also known as Sun Wu, was a famous philosopher and military strategist in ancient China.

For the Spring Festival activities, Guangrao county invested over 38 million yuan ($5 million) to integrate Sun Tzu culture with local folk customs – complemented by architecture, water features, green spaces and cultural landscapes.

The Sun Tzu Cultural Park incorporated high-tech lighting, live performances and special commercial activities to create a series of immersive night tour experiences.

During the Spring Festival holiday, a fleet of 500 drones gracefully took off at night, forming various shapes in the sky such as a dragon's head and Sun Wu's portrait. This was accompanied by a gigantic dragon "flying" on the city wall – thanks to sound-light-electric technology – providing a magnificent visual feast.
