<p>According to New Zealand media outlet, <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://www.stuff.co.nz/travel/350179057/chinese-new-year-dragon-breaks-world-record">Stuff</a>, nine months of planning went into the drone formation, resulting in this mesmerising show, which many say is even better than fireworks.</p>
<p>As the dragon gracefully circled the building, it even  transitioned through a spectrum of colours, from blue to green, red, and yellow hues.﻿</p>
