The first day of the Chinese invasion in Tibet was March 10th 1959. On this day, fifty years later, Tibetans commemorated it with a 10 kilometer peaceful march from McLeod Ganj to Dharamsala. Once they reached lower Dharamsala, everyone sang the Tibetan national anthem, followed by several speeches. The event ended with a moment of silence for the Tibetan’s who lost their life in the struggle for independence.
