One of the world's largest Buddha statues carved from precious jade will be displayed at Hoi An Pagoda in Binh Duong Province from November 18-23.
The Venerable Thich Minh Luc, secretary general of the provincial Buddhist Sangha, said the jade statue, with a weight of four tones and height of 4.2 meters, will be on display for a week. It will then be brought to Go Ken Pagoda in Tay Ninh province's Hoa Thanh District on November 25.
The organization board and local authorities have set up free parking lots near the pagoda to make it more convenience for people to visit.
The statue will then be brought to Australia, its final destination after its journey across 20 countries and 90 cities. ___ VNS
