Though there is little notably visible on the surface, parts of the Buddhist Temple II site have been conserved.[2] A large eight-metre long reclining Buddha, decorated, with its pedestal, in red paint, was discovered during excavations in 1961. It was sent to the Hermitage Museum for conservation, where, in 2004, it was noted only a small section had been treated - the rest still in their original transportation packing.[2]: 138
