They even have a smaller hall just dedicated to Buddhist related sculpture. And although it was relatively small, the display inside was still as impressive to me. It's like they have so much treasure in the palace that even those non-main exhibition is still a treasure to look at and admire, do you get what I mean? It wasn't that they were trying to showcase the wealth of the country, but it's just that, they do have a lot of treasure in China! Lots and lots of old and ancient treasure. Art so fine that almost everywhere you look is a treasure.
The minor hall as mentioned.
And some info of the hall's display.
Yet look at all the pieces here. Elegant in their own rights.
Beautiful pieces of the 18 monks.
And so many Buddhist related pieces that I'm only showing you those I love.
The details of each piece was just mind blowing. So many hands! Each carrying something unique.
Or this elegant piece on what I thought looked like a 'bangku', lol.
But it is always the simplest pieces that always captures my attention. Nothing fancy. Just something simple, minimalistic, and kinda pure. I love looking at all these pieces in photos even after I'm back from China. Having these here in my blog, is like I own a piece of them here now. And I can always come back to view and admire them and remember that time I went to visit them in Beijing :)
