The Five Rams

Guangzhou has a bunch of different nick-names...but one that seems to stick is the City of The Five Celestial Rams.  Well, here they are.

Frankly, this is commie 'art' at its finest.  Instead of this being a truly unique piece of work by carving with one piece of stone, it was made of several blocks...and the seams are clearly visible all around the statue. 

It doesn't stop it from being one of the biggest tourist attractions in the city, though.
