铜骡子 tóng luó zi
Copper mule
The copper mule is at Dongyue Taoist Temple in the Chaoyang District. It’s a mixture of horse, mule and cow. There are old sayings it can cure illness or prevent people from getting sick if you tough it. And guess which part of the copper mule is effective if you touch it? Yes, it’s the buttocks.
