Buddhist Site
An odd artifact that is a statue of Buddha with a hole in its navel can be seen at Jaulian that is called “healing Buddha”. People visit this place with the belief that by putting their finger in the naval hole and praying for the alimenting of patients would help to cure the illness. The carved writing under the statue reveals that this statue was gifted by “Budhamitra Dharmanandin” a friar. This and some of other carved writings at this site are the indications that in the fifth century CE the script was still used
