(Minghui.org) Practitioners held an event on May 12 to celebrate the 32nd anniversary of Falun Dafa’s introduction to the world and the 25th World Falun Dafa Day. The celebration was held at Wenceslas Square, Prague’s main square, which is always crowded.
May 13 is also the birthday of Master Li, the founder of Falun Dafa, and Czech practitioners also sincerely wished Master Li a happy birthday.
The event began before 10 a.m. with demonstrations of the exercises, followed by a waist drum team, and a fairy and dragon dance that continued until late afternoon.
