A larger than life hand carved stone statue of the Chinese philosopher, Confucius, stands on an oblong plinth in what appears to be limestone, the same stone as the sculpture.
Confucius stands with his hands crossed in front of his chest, wearing a long flowing Chinese robe, with large hanging sleeves.
Wales honoured with statue of Confucius.
