(Clearwisdom.net) This was the first year Falun Gong practitioners had a booth at the Mednat & Agrobiorama Expo 2009, which was held from March 26 to March 29 at the Beaulieu Palace of Lausanne. Lausanne is the second largest city in the French-speaking part of Switzerland. With more than 20 years since its creation, the Mednat expo has become the Swiss Leader of exhibitions on natural medicine, well-being and health.

Many visitors are attracted to the Falun Gong booth

Thousands of people visited this very popular exhibition, and many were attracted to the peaceful Falun Gong booth, where they could see a presentation of the Falun Gong exercises, receive information on the practice and be updated on the current situation in China and abroad.

Several practitioners from Geneva joined local practitioners to participate in the four day exhibition. Visitors were very receptive and happy to discover or learn more on this topic, which still remained unknown to most of them. Over the course of the expo, many visitors from Lausanne, other cities and areas of Switzerland and neighboring France condemned the persecution in China, expressed their wish to learn the practice and asked for contact information to local practice sites.
