Nice, I wish I could have it! BTW, when I saw the title of your thread spaced out, I thought it was spam, lol.
I saw it in my honeymoon back in 2008 . when you see it you start to realize that gold is really heavy, it is big but for 5500 kg it would be much bigger if it was not made of Gold. Unfortunately I did not get the chance to take pictures, we were there for few minutes only and it was crowded
I saw the reclining Buddah, we did not get the chance to see the emerald Buddah because the wife had to go shopping .. again
The Jade Buddha is also on most people's "must see" list, at least asians I know. All I know is I HAD to see it when I was there.
