Introduction to the Five Hundred Arhat Statue: The Wooden Five Hundred Arhat Statue in Nanhua Temple is the only existing group of Wooden Five Hundred Arhat statues from the Song Dynasty in my country. Each statue is carved from a whole piece of wood, with a height of 49.5 to 58 cm and a diameter of 23.5 to 28 cm. The wood is mainly cypress, with a small amount of nanmu, camphor or sandalwood. Each statue consists of two parts: a base and a seated statue. These Arhat statues are natural in shape, varied, vivid and expressive, and the carvings are refined. They have high artistic research value and are very precious historical relics.
