Amazing hot air balloon designs floating in Manila sky
- Published

This balloon being inflated shows Dutch artist Vincent Van Gogh's head, covered with the painter's characteristic brush strokes.

It's part of a big hot-air balloon festival that happens every year in Manila, in the Philippines.

The festival's into its 19th year and organisers say 32 balloons are involved this time.

There are some normal balloons but others are pretty strange designs - this one's based on the nursery rhyme The Old Woman Who Lived In A Shoe.

Here's an Octo-balloon!

And here's a cheeky devil! This one's called Burnie.

Burnie's been at work! These firefighters had to get to work quickly when one of the balloons caught fire.

There they go... It's a pretty impressive sight when they're all in the air. Can you spot the upside-down one?
