The flag-lowering ceremony at Wagah border is a daily military practice that the security forces of India and Pakistan have jointly followed since 1959. The drill, characterized by elaborate and rapid dance-like maneuvers, has been described as "colorful." It is alternatively a symbol of the two countries' rivalry, as well as brotherhood and cooperation between the two nations. [Photo by Gong Jie/China.org.cn]
