On the afternoon of August 12, a Falun Gong contingent composed of flags, dragon flags, celestial maiden dancers and waist drums joined other community groups and set off from Bangkok Bridge, marching toward Big Cup Shopping Mall. On the way, vigorous drum beats, colorful flags and elegant dancing, and celestial maidens spreading flowers, attracted attention of people on the streets. They highly praised the wonderful performances. Falun Gong practitioners held in both hands big colorful lotus flowers which were filled with small paper-folded lotus flowers, each attached a book mark with a message about the virtues of Falun Dafa. They presented these lotuses to people watching on the streets.
