| Connecting Chinese and Indians |
China and India are two ancient countries with rich heritage and share a lot in common in terms of customs, arts and culture. Passion India is so delighted to be able to immerse in both cultures in HK, a place where both cultures flourish. |
Most of us at Passion India are Chinese with strong aspirations for Indian culture. We are proud to be Chinese and are dedicated to our acquisition for knowledge in Indian tradition, arts and culture. |
We hope to share our experience and joy with our community through becoming “messengers” between China and India. We also want to foster stronger ties and better understanding between the two nations and let us all live in PEACE. |

| A book on India |
Passion India founder Ella Yu and founding member Dorothy Chin have jointly written a book on their trips to India. The book, in Chinese and titled “Who Am I? An Indian!” (緣來我是印度人), is a collection of the feelings and gratitude these two Chinese girls had during and after their visits in India. |
In the book, they talk about their Yoga practice, dance lessons, exchanges with Indians, their exploration of the Indian landscape, their gratitude to masters. The authors hope to share with their fellow Chinese the bliss they acquired in India. |
