Tailing - the tomb of Emperor Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty

After Emperor Yongzheng ascended the throne, he selected Jiufeng Chaoyang Mountain in Zunhua as the mausoleum site, but gave up because the soil contained sand and stone, and "although the scale was large, the shape was not complete", and then chose Taiping Valley under Taining Mountain in Yi County as the "auspicious place for eternity" 🏞️. In the eighth year of Yongzheng's reign (1730), the construction of Tai Mausoleum officially started, but the project was not completed until the death of Emperor Yongzheng in the thirteenth year of Yongzheng's reign. Emperor Qianlong sent Prince Heng Hongzhao to continue the construction, and it was finally completed on September 16, the first year of Qianlong's reign (1736). On March 2 of the following year, Emperor Yongzheng's coffin was buried in the underground palace. In the 13th year of Emperor Qianlong's reign, stone statues were rebuilt in Tai Mausoleum. Tai Mausoleum created the pattern of building the eastern and western mausoleums of the Qing Dynasty. It is an important carrier for studying the politics, economy, culture and funeral system of the Qing Dynasty. Its exquisite architectural craftsmanship, stone archway carvings, Longen Hall paintings, etc. demonstrate the high level of Qing Dynasty architectural art🎨, and can be called a treasure of the cultural heritage of ancient Chinese royal mausoleums✨. As one of the representatives of ancient Chinese royal mausoleums, Qingtai Mausoleum carries rich Chinese traditional cultural connotations and is an important part of the cultural heritage of the Chinese nation. It has far-reaching significance for inheriting and promoting traditional culture🌠!
