A gilt bronze statue of Guanyin, known as the Goddess of Mercy, with 11 heads, 1,000 eyes and hands, is on display at Henan Museum, July 5, 2011. The "Holy Tibet - Treasures from Land Closest to the Sky" exhibit is open to the public in Zhengzhou, capital of Central China's Henan province. The 77-centimeter-tall statue, made in the 17th to 18th century, was stored in Norbulingka (literally the "Jeweled Park"), formerly the Dalai Lama's summer resort in Lhasa. Over 127 precious items are being shown in the exhibition, which will run for two months starting July 6. [Photo/Xinhua]
