In front of the majestic and imposing Buddhist buildings grew a lychee tree almost 800 years old, which still bears fruit. There are two jade statues of Buddha brought from Myanmar in the Jade Buddha Hall. The seated Buddha is 2.95 meters tall, while the reclining one measures 3.7 meters in length.
