Five-Ram Sculpture, Granite monument at Yuexiu Hill, China
The Five-Ram Sculpture reaches 11 meters in height and consists of 130 granite pieces displaying five rams in different stances on top of Yuexiu Hill.
Three sculptors created this symbol of Guangzhou in 1959, drawing inspiration from the ancient tale of immortal beings arriving on goats with rice seeds.
The stone rams represent the transformation of mystical animals that brought agricultural knowledge to Guangzhou, leading to its nickname City of the Five Rams.
Visitors can access the monument through Yuexiu Park Station on Metro Line 2, with the park operating daily from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM without entrance fees.
The central ram stands taller than the surrounding four, which display activities like grazing and nurturing young, forming a connected narrative in stone.
