A group of Buddhist monks is trekking 2,300 miles across 10 states, and their Walk for Peace will pass right through Charlotte between January 10 and 20, 2026. Their journey isn’t a protest—it’s a call to awaken the peace and kindness already within us. If you spot them on the road, remember: this is a time for quiet reflection, not cheering. Aloka the Peace Dog, who joined the monks in India, will be along for the walk too! Keep an eye on their live map and Facebook for updates on the exact route. How do you feel about this peaceful movement passing through our city? #Religion #WalkForPeace #CharlotteNC
