(Clearwisdom.net) Guansi Town in Hsinchu County is famous for the Chinese medicine herb "Xiancao"--Glossy Ganoderma. In order to promote the herb and traditional culture, the local government has held a "Xiancao Festival" every November for the past 6 years. Falun Gong practitioners were invited to perform the waist drums at the festival this year.

The festival was held in a Ganoderma factory on November 4 and 5. The host of the festival introduced the Falun Gong group to the spectators, saying: "Falun Gong practitioners follow the principles of 'Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance'. You will find the sound of their music different and special, because it will be full of 'Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance'."
