Falun Gong(also known as Falun Dafa) is a spiritual practice from China. It was founded by Li Hongzhi. People who follow Falun Gong do five exercises and read books written by Li Hongzhi. They say that they believe in "Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance". There were almost 100 million Falun Gong followers in China. There are also followers in 80 other countries around the world. Nobody knows exactly how many there are.

Some people don't like Falun Gong. In 1999, the Communist Party of China said: you can't practice Falun Gong, it is an "evil cult". The police started putting Falun Gong followers into jails and labour camps. Many followers have been killed and tortured.
