Photos from Tour: Coast to Coast, Across Continents

We’re kicking off the rest of tour at Virginia Beach, where our dancers show their love for the city’s stunning coast and warm audiences.

Photos from Tour: Coast to Coast, Across Continents

Meanwhile, dancers a continent away bask in the sunset glow of Australia's Gold Coast...

... and others enjoy both sun and shade in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

For our dancers, a sandy beach is just another stage.

After getting their fill of sun and sand, they head to Old San Juan to explore its historic Spanish forts, cobblestone streets, and colonial architecture.

But the coast soon calls them back—this time in Laguna Beach, home to one of the largest marine protected areas in Southern California.

Rocky shores and clear blue waters inspire reflection and relaxation...

.. and of course, the opportunity to strike a pose, Shen Yun dancer-style.

Back in Virginia Beach, a dancer tests his aerial skills on a set of traveling rings.

Sunset lends cinematic flair to our dancers' moves.

A bike ride along the Virginia Beach Boardwalk brings more sights to see...

...like this 34-foot-tall King Neptune statue.

These dancers enjoy the water by boat, on a peaceful ferry ride from Germany to Denmark.

Sunset views—and photoshoots—never get old.

A stop at the National Gallery in London calls for a poster-worthy group picture.

Dancers stand guard at the Cité de Carcassonne, a medieval citadel and UNESCO World Heritage Site in the French city of Carcassonne.

Panoramic views of Florence, Italy, the birthplace of the Renaissance, inspire awe and respect.

Shen Yun members enjoy a taste of the Italian Riviera in Genoa, Italy.

In Valencia, Spain, a dancer celebrates Shen Yun's opening performance at the Palau de les Arts Reina Sofia.

Dancers sample the best of Seattle at the city's popular Pike Place Market.

The Grand Canyon, one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, is a must-see in the American Southwest.

Breathtaking views over the canyon offer a glimpse of nearly two billion years of Earth's geological history.

Our dancers add their own artistry to this masterpiece of nature.

In a place like the Grand Canyon, it's hard not to feel humbled by the vastness of the universe and creation.

Meanwhile, in Tokyo, Japan, cherry blossoms herald the arrival of spring.

Dancers admire the blossoms in Ueno Park, one of Japan's oldest public parks, and visit Senso-ji, the oldest temple in Tokyo.

In Sydney, Australia, dancers take a relaxing stroll through the Chinese Garden of Friendship.

They enjoy the lush greenery and Ming dynasty-inspired design.

In Kyoto, dancers explore some of the city's 2,000-plus Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines, from a bamboo grove on the Kodai-ji Temple grounds...

... to the iconic red torii gates of Fushimi Inari Shrine.

In nearby Nara, they find signs of ancient China's influence at Tōdai-ji, a temple modeled after those of China's Tang dynasty.

Meanwhile, our musicians become Argentine gauchos, or cowboys, for a day at Estancia La Mimosa, a historic ranch outside of Buenos Aires.

They try their hand (and feet) at dance for a change, learning the malambo, a traditional Argentine folk dance—proving art truly is a universal language.

During the second half of our 2026 tour, our artists soaked up plenty of sun—along with centuries of history and culture, from Japanese temples to an Argentine ranch. Here's a glimpse of our travels around the world.
