Shen Yun Performing Arts arrived at Amsterdam‘s Schiphol Airport in the Netherlands early Thursday morning. Some local Shen Yun fans arrived left their homes very early to be at the airport to welcome them.

This is the fourth time Shen Yun has toured Europe.

Choreographer and company manager Vina Lee spoke highly of European audiences.

[Vina Lee, Company Manager & Choreographer]:
"European audiences are very warm, and their appreciation (for art) is also very high. So I think that we are going to connect with them throughout the show. We will give the audience the best gift. Thank you."

Ms. Lee says Shen Yun is not only about performing arts. The show also brings a new outlook for audience members, giving them a new spiritual understanding of China.

Wenxin Wu, chairman of the European Falun Dafa Association, which hosts the show, says every time Shen Yun comes to Europe, they impress European audiences.

[Wenxin Wu, Chairman, European Falun Dafa Association]:
"We expect more audience members will come to see the show and more European people will benefit from Shen Yun both spiritually and mentally."

Before Shen Yun arrived in Amsterdam, the European Parliament in Brussels and some European artists welcomed the performers.

Shen Yun’s first European show is at the RAI Theatre in Amsterdam Friday night.
