Tourists from all over the world visited the information table. They were surprised to find introductory materials in their own languages. They learned that Falun Gong has spread to every corner of the world. Many visitors used hand gestures to encourage Falun Gong practitioners.
One local resident was fascinated by the Chinese words "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance." He got a paper lotus flower from practitioners and hung it in his car.
A tourist from Australia was shocked by the brutality of the persecution. She said she would find out more about it when she returned home.
A group of female students from China hesitated to get close at first. They later sneaked closer to read the introduction, in Chinese, about the benefits of Falun Dafa and the brutal persecution. They all accepted the paper lotus flowers. A Chinese practitioner talked to them patiently and analyzed the nature of the Chinese Communist Party. All of the students chose to quit the Communist Youth League and Young Pioneers.
