This hall in Beihai Park is a statue of Buddha, 1.5 metres high, carved out of a very fine piece of white jade. The head and clothes are inlaid with red and green precious stones. The statue is said to have come from Bur-ma during the reign of Qing Emperor Guangxu (1875-1908). The knife scar on its left arm was made by the allied forces of the eight powers in 1900.
