The Jade Buddha for Universal Peace is in Seattle for about a week as part of its world tour. I went to the Vietnamese Buddhist temple to see it Saturday afternoon. The story of the nine-foot-tall, four-ton sculpture can be found here  www.jadebuddha.org.au/en/  See a larger image of the Buddha in the comments.
