The horse-head bronze statue lost from the Old Summer Palace returned to the site of the former royal resort on Tuesday.
Looted by the invading Anglo-French forces in 1860, the statue was one of 12 depicting Chinese zodiac animals in front of a fountain.
The statue will be regularly displayed in the Zhengjue Temple area in the Old Summer Palace.
