Asian culture in DK

The Asian Culture Festival took place in Aalborg for a weekend.

Having the party at my place friday and sleeping through saturday stopped me from going to the festival but my mum and I went sunday. Expecting some show from different asian cultures and workshops where you could make different asian culture stuff and of course some delicious food from asian countries! 

The admission was 75kr pr grownup and 50kr for students. 

It all took place in Karolinelund, a former tivoli that has been made into a public place to come and go as you want to but not this weekend. The normal entrance to Karolinelund was closed so we walked to the other side and found our way in. They took credit card.

When we came inside we actually got a bit disappointed. There were no asian decorations at all and on the internet they promised art and there were none. There were some tents from Korea and Thailand and Bangladesh and China but not from Japan - We did not find any workshop. 

But you could do some Chinese signs and letters, get your name spelled with Chinese letters by a guy and get face painted by some sweet Chinese people. You could make and decorate your own pointy hat with paint and have some tea in the traditional way of Korea. You could buy things from Thailand and taste/buy candy and very good food from Thailand. 

Actually the main attraction was food. In the biggest tent there where all kinds of different and very fragrant food from everywhere in Asia. 

sushi from japan

idian curry

chiken curry

yogurt soup

candy and cakes from everywhere

mango/pineapple slush 

thai mix 

.. The list goes on.

The food was so good! But there were no costumes or funny music. 

A bit of a disappointment buut the food was worth the trip and we had small chats with very sweet and outgoing asian people.
