Snap' Description
Tucked deep within a dense, misty bamboo grove on Yu'an Mountain, the Bamboo Temple houses an absolute masterpiece of classical Chinese sculpture. Inside the main halls reside 500 individual, life-sized clay Arhat statues sculpted in the late Qing Dynasty. Each figure displays entirely distinct human expressions, emotions, and poses.
