(Clearwisdom.net) On December 26, 2009, local Falun Gong practitioners participated in a parade held by the Hualian City government.
The Divine Land Marching Band
Forty-six groups took part in the parade, and more than ten thousand people watched it. The Divine Land Marching Band, consisting of more than 100 Falun Gong practitioners, performed in the parade. Following the band was practitioners' traditional Chinese dance team. Practitioners also passed out hand-made paper lotus flowers and Falun Dafa bookmarks.
It was the second time that the city government had invited Falun Gong practitioners to march in the parade. Many Chinese tourists watched the parade.
