61st India Independence Anniversary in Pickering








Organized by The Indo-Canadian Cultural Association of Durham (ICCAD) Inc. The Indian Independence event was a great opportunity to enjoy beautiful traditional Indian music and dance. Being a multicultural event (there is an important Chinese minority in India) we had the chance to see also a beautiful Chinese dance.


A Legend...
Once upon a time, a long time ago, there was this lion terrorizing a Chinese village. The villagers decided to go to the wise monk living outside their village for advice. And the monk had the idea not to kill the lion, but to tam it. It was difficult, but in the end he succeeded and the lion become the friend and the protector of the village.
