In June 2002, the Hong Kong SAR received the donation of an original calligraphy featuring the "Prajna Paramita Hrdaya Sutra" (Heart Sutra) from Professor Jao Tsung-I. The masterpiece is reproduced in the form of a large-scale outdoor wood inscription on a slope at the foot of Lantau Peak near Ngong Ping of Lantau Island.
 
The project was completed in May 2005. The calligraphy has been carved on to 38 wooden columns reminiscent of bamboo tiles (zhujian) used for writing in ancient times. The columns have been arranged in a figure-of-eight configuration symbolising infinity. The column located at the highest point of the hill is left blank to suggest the concept of "emptiness", a key theme in the Heart Sutra.
