Culture Shock

While travelling around the world, our crew members often see some special cultural events. In this Culture Shock section we show you movies about these special cultural occasions.

Paper house ceremony, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Chinese Buddhists have a special tradition to honour their dead. A paper house will be built for family members who passed away. They believe, that after a few years, the person needs his house in heaven. And the paper house they build will be his or her mansion in heaven.

Queen’s Day, Amsterdam, Holland

Queen's Day is a national holiday in the Kingdom of the Netherlands. The national colour in The Netherlands is orange so that’s why you will see everybody partying in orange clothes during the day, in the streets and on the boats in the canals.

More IFLYtheworld.com Culture Shock movies will follow soon.
