The remaining two stone male kylin (an imaginary beast that symbolizes
peace and righteousness) in front of the Yongning Tomb face each other
from east to west across a distance of 25.84 meters (ca 84.8 ft). The one
on the east side has two corns and the one on the west has one corn.
These well-preserved stone kylin are the most exquisite pair in front of
tombs of Southern Dynasties emperors in Nanjing.
