Buddhist Monks End 2,300-Mile Walk for Peace in Washington, D.C.
On Tuesday, February 10, a group of 19 Buddhist monks arrived in Washington, D.C., marking the end of their remarkable 2,300-mile Walk for Peace. The 15-week (108-day) journey began in Texas in late October, and the humble pilgrimage soon drew growing crowds along the way. Supporters gathered across the southeastern states to cheer them on as they continued step by step, accompanied the entire way by their rescue dog, Aloka.
