Subject

Description
There are 17 clay Buddhist sculptures in the hall. The main statue is Sakyamuni sitting cross-legged in Sumeru. The Sakyamuni statue is nearly 4 meters tall and still retains the unique style and features typical of Tang statues. The carved stone pagoda in the main hall of Nanchan Temple is only 51 centimeters tall. Judging by the style of its design, it dates from the mid-Tang Dynasty, when the temple hall was built.
