a| Wagah is a small village in the disputed province of Kashmir. Split by the border between India and Pakistan, it is the Berlin of Asia. Independence in 1947 saw British India separated into two states, one Hindu and one Muslim. And Wagah was divided too, its eastern half in India and its western half in Pakistan. The village's main road now leads to the only border crossing point for many miles. Every evening, the flag is lowered on either side of the border, an impressive theatrical display that attracts large audiences. Thousands of people gather to witness the ritual closing of the border, and while either side claims to be better, bigger, have a more powerful army and a more beautiful flag, after the ceremony the masses try to get as close as possible to the gate to greet their former neighbors. This "festival" is therefore a celebration of the partition, but also a virtual point of contact between the two countries.
