I Found a $5 Million Jade Buddha

I found a $5 Million Jade Buddha in the hills of Escondido California 

The Jade Buddha of Universal Peace in Escondido California

I wasn't looking for it - I just happened to stumble on it after visiting my Escondido listing a short distance away. It was the cars on the hill and the multicolored flags that drew me in. 

And I wasn't really aware of the significance of my find, even while visiting, until I did a little research. 

Seems the Jade Buddha of Universal Peace is on a world tour and is in Escondido CA at the Phap Vuong Monastery from February 7th through the 16th  at 715 Vista Avenue. 

DON'T MISS IT IF YOU ARE IN THE AREA TODAY!! 

The Jade Buddha of Universal Peace is an amazing sculpture of gemstone-quality jade, created from 1 18-ton stone (it weighs about 4 tons), and is the largest of its kind in the world.

At the end of January 2010 there were 646 Escondido homes for sale, a boost in inventory of 4% over December. This represents an inventory of 2.7 months for attached homes (down from 2.9 months last month) and 3.4 months for detached homes (down from 3.6 months), based on the current rate of sales over the last 6 months.
