(Minghui.org) After a successful showing in Istanbul in March, the “Falun Gong's Peaceful Resistance” Photo Exhibition opened in Ankara on September 20 and ran for eight days. The exhibit sought to introduce Falun Dafa to local residents as well as to expose the Chinese Communist Party's persecution of Falun Gong.
The venue was a gallery in a city shopping center. The 70 color photos on display illustrated the beauty of Falun Dafa, the perseverance of the spiritual movement despite the persecution, and the brutal suppression of Falun Gong practitioners over the past 13 years.
Many visitors came to the gallery every day

Visitors often took informational materials as they left the gallery.
Visitors came to the gallery in an endless stream. Many praised Falun Dafa practitioners for their peaceful and rational resistance and condemned the Chinese Communist Party's crimes. Many of them wanted to help Falun Gong and some took fliers as they to share with their friends and family.
The persecution of Falun Gong, especially the systematic live organ harvesting and “transplants for profit” overseen by the Chinese Communist Party, angered almost every visitor. After understanding the facts, an owner of a famous brand clothing store turned red with anger. He said, “The Communist Party's harvesting of organs from living Falun Gong practitioners is demonic behavior. God will never forgive that demon!” Similar comments were heard every day.
The photo exhibition in Ankara closed on September 28 but will be shown in other cities in Turkey.
