After attracting an estimated 12 million visitors, it returned to the Great Stupa in May 2018, where it continues to be a potent symbol of peace.The image shows Ian Green, Great Stupa Chairman, with his wife and Stupa Board member Judy, being presented with flowers at Dai Nam Temple in Himeji during the Jade Buddha tour to Japan.
