Old Fashion Mascleta Firework - Engraellet - 5 Years Fallas being a UNESCO Intangible Heritage

in hive-184437 •  3 years ago 


It has been probably now over 12 years since I saw one of those Engraellet Mascleta Fireworks here in Valencia and I was urging to see one again but always found out about them too late. They're super special and wanted to finally record one again but this time with a decent camera.

The traditional Valencia Mascleta is using big firecrackers connected with each other by a fuse string hanging above the ground. But the Engraellet are heavy weights, stuffed with black powder and placed directly on the ground. And they're connected with a Traca, a very Valencian specific firework string.

This video was recorded with this phone.
