This spectacular footage shows thousands of fireworks seen from a plane flying above the colorful display in celebration of Chinese New Year’s Eve.

The breathtaking scenery was filmed by Ms Jia, who was flying from Shenzhen to her hometown of Zhengzhou, in China’s central Henan Province, to celebrate the holiday with her family.
