Crafted with a hollow stainless steel technique and gold-plated surface, the sculpture dazzles in sunlight, exuding a sense of grandeur and sacredness.

The "Golden Ox" represents diligence, abundance, and strength, while the "Auspicious Clouds" signify harmony, fortune, and hope. Together, they create a majestic tableau of natural and cultural splendor, encapsulating the unique spiritual essence of Chinese culture.
