(Minghui.org) Falun Dafa practitioners hold information days in Hamburg, Germany’s city center on Fridays and Saturdays. They introduce Falun Dafa and tell people how the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is persecuting the practice.

Falun Dafa practitioners set up an information station on the Reesendamm Bridge on June 7, 2025. The bridge is a link between the city center shopping area and the pedestrian street. In this early summer season in northern Germany, many locals and tourists flock to the popular shopping district. People were drawn to the posters, and stopped to learn about Falun Dafa. Practitioners demonstrated the exercises and handed out fliers to passersby.

Two women stopped in front of the posters and accepted a flyer from a practitioner. One of them smiled and said, “I’ve seen you here many times. I asked myself, ‘What exactly is Falun Dafa?’”A practitioner explained that Falun Dafa originated in China and is a body and mind practice that was widely spread in the 1990s. It follows Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance, and is taught to the public for free. Many people benefit from it physically and mentally.

The practitioner further explained, “This is not just a fitness exercise, but also a way to improve a person’s mind and soul by following the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance. However, such a peaceful exercise has been brutally persecuted by the CCP since 1999, including illegal detention, torture, and even forced organ harvesting and murder of Falun Dafa practitioners. Therefore, practitioners volunteer to raise awareness around the world. It’s important to let people know that Falun Dafa is good. The CCP’s persecution will eventually be stopped.”

The two women said they understood, and that they would read the flier after returning home and learn more. They thanked the practitioner before leaving.

A young Chinese woman accepted a flier and thanked the practitioners with a smile.

Among those who learned about the persecution were young people from Hamburg, some families with children, and tourists from Bavaria, Denmark, the U.K., Iran, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, China, and Vietnam.

Four children of a family from Denmark stood next to a practitioner and imitated the exercises as he did them. Their mother was moved and took photos. Their father listened as a practitioner explained what Falun Dafa is.

An Iranian family stood in front of the posters and read them. One of the little girls stood next to the practitioner who was demonstrating the exercises, imitating his posture and movements, while her mother happily took photos of the scene. They accepted fliers with a smile and asked when the practitioners would demonstrate the exercises to the public in this park, as they also wanted to learn the exercises. They explained that they had seen practitioners in the park many times.

The practitioner explained that practitioners do the exercises on the lawn in front of the pond next to the rose garden from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. every Sunday. If the weather is bad, they move to the music dome. People can learn the exercises for free at the practice site, or learn online at the Falun Dafa website, www.falundafa.org. The mother was happy to hear this and said she wanted to learn the exercises from practitioners.
