(Minghui.org) The 50 th Suwon Hwaseong Cultural Festival—one of the largest culture and tourism festivals in Korea—took place from September 27 to October 1, 2013 in Suwon. The Citizen Parade held on September 28 was one of the highlights of the celebration.
The Falun Dafa Divine Land Marching Band and Falun Gong Exercise Demonstration Group were invited to take part in the parade. Tourists from inside and outside Korea lining both sides of the road were impressed by the orderly, magnificent formation of the marching band and the majestic music performed. They were also amazed at the practitioners' peaceful and soothing exercise demonstration.

Both sides of the road were packed with crowds of people. Wherever the Divine Land Marching Band went, spectators applauded and cheered. Shouts of “Falun Dafa is good” in Chinese could be heard from the crowd.
After the practitioners' exercise demonstration group passed by, some spectators followed along, imitating their hand movements. Many more spectators accepted flyers from Falun Gong practitioners. In three hours, over 8,000 flyers were given out. Many spectators talked with practitioners and learned more about Falun Gong and the persecution in China.
