The cult that harmony; the delicate movement of thousands of people able to walk looking at the sky without bumping; silence impossible when there are so many, many, wandering around in your environment; the care with which touched the flowers; the hundreds of people who are in various arranged with their traditional dresses cities for your appointment with a tree.
