The ‘three turtles’ statue shows three turtles of different sizes stacked upon eachothers backs from largest on bottom to smallest on top. I am very curious as to the origin of this statue and what it might mean with relation to the turtles formation and the angles of their heads (which I don’t think is coincidental). I found many sites with general superstitious information (i.e. brings longevity), and many sites that hightlighted the turtle (i.e. long living creature, earth on top/heaven on bottom). However, there must be a story about this particular formation of turtles…its just too common to be some arbitrary statue that became popular.
