(Clearwisdom.net) At the end of July and the beginning of August, some practitioners from Switzerland and Italy went to the island of Sardinia to promote Falun Gong. A young practitioner from Switzerland who went to Sardinia one year ago helped to make this journey happen.

Practicing Falun Gong and Setting up Truth-clarification Posters in the park

Sardinia is only slightly smaller than Sicily and is a famous holiday place in Italy. Every year, its unique natural scenery and popular beaches attract many tourists from all over the world.

Practitioners demonstrated the five sets of Falun Gong exercises in the park every morning. Many people who were doing various exercises in the park would stop and come to see our poster display boards. They were watching us doing the exercises. Some people also took leaflets.

We held Falun Gong information days in the cities of Olbia, Sassari and Nuoro. We also went to many famous places with lots of tourists and distributed leaflets. While we were demonstrating the exercises in the square, many tourists and local citizens stopped to watch us, read the poster boards and take leaflets. A lot of people could not understand why the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) persecutes Falun Gong practitioners. But more people asked us where they could learn the exercises.

One middle-aged gentleman told us he had seen a documentary program regarding the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners by the CCP on the television. He felt furious and shocked. He has been thinking of finding out more about these exercises and now he saw us here holding the information day. He was so happy. We told him about Zhuan Falun, the main text of Falun Gong practice, and that he can read this another Falun Gong book online.

There was also a journalist called Catalina who works for a daily newspaper called Sardinia Island United Newspaper which is issued throughout the island. Catalina reported the stories of Falun Gong practitioners and revealed the truth of the persecution by the CCP using a whole page spread. We were happy that more people on Sardinia Island could learn about Falun Gong.
