What is this place?

I believe this statue has been here for at least over 18 years (that's when the first time I visited this shop). This person is the famous Chinese calligrapher 王羲之 Wang Xizhi. Hints: this place is very famous internationally and now a tourists "must visit" place. Please also check the photo for something more explicit. Something tiny but very distinctive to tell.

Is that a funny looking turtle in the water?

Too many internationally known "must visit" places in HK. Do I know this place?
I already enlarged this photo but cannot find any hint.

王羲之好似鍾意食鵝多啲.

Yes, it's Yung Kee. Anonymous 7:13pm, 虎豹別墅 does have some figures like that but most of those figures are either fairy tales or some spirits, not relating to those poets or calligraphers.

Ms. 聶, Sawadee Krup. Wishing you a good time in Pattaya.

Stella, I think they might have renovated after you left.

Sorry Pixmation, I shouldn't describe it "tiny" so that you look at something "tiny". In fact, I referred the "tiny" to the head's sign of goose which is quite special and easy to recognise it's a goose. Ducks have a flatter forehead.

Oh it is Yung Kee. Now I see the 2 geese as the hint you referred to.
Yes, I also tried to enlarge and look for any tiny spot for the hint.
Guess I cannot be the detective or FBI.
