(Clearwisdom.net) The annual Helsinki Day was held on the 12th of June, during which the whole city was filled with different events such as dancing, music, and performances. Falun Dafa practitioners participated, demonstrating the exercises and explaining the facts about Falun Dafa and the persecution in China in the Central Park of Helsinki.
Even though the day was rainy, many people were out to watch the performances and take part in different activities. People showed great interest in Falun Gong. Many people stopped to take a look at the exercise demonstrations and read the information boards. People talked about their views with practitioners and signed a petition calling for an end to the persecution. Hundreds of people from Helsinki and tourists from different countries made their way through the park during the day. Practitioners distributed information in different languages. A group of Chinese tourists had a good opportunity to see Falun Gong outside China and discover the facts about the situation. Practitioners also handed out paper folded lotus flowers for children. Falun Dafa practitioners helped to create a positive and harmonious atmosphere on Helsinki Day.
