There is an old story about these five rams: in ancient times GUANGZHOU, was a land of frequent famines and local people had a hard time. One day there were five gods riding five rams slowly occurred in GUANGZHOU from heaven. Every ram had a rice ear in mouth. The five gods met local people and left their rams and rice—ears to them and blessed them good luck in the future. Since then GUANGZHOU became a prosperous land of many harvest. Local people built up temple and this special status to memorize those kind—hearted gods. S o that’s why this city has a nickname as ram city and abbreviation name Sui(rice—ear in Chinese). This sculpture was established in 1950.
