    The Guangwu Tomb Group is located in the famous Yanmen Pass.

    5 kilometers from the foot of the Outer Great Wall, from San'in.

    The county seat is 40 kilometers, located in the southwest of Zhangjiazhuang Township, in the north of Xinguangwu Village, 4 kilometers wide from east to west, 8 kilometers long from north to south, covering an area of 32 square kilometers.

    There are a total of 293 sealed mounds on the ground, and the underground has not yet proved that the tombs of the Han Dynasty can not be counted, and it is the largest Han tomb group in China.

    Hundreds of mounds of sealed earth are undulating, as strong as hills, and the area is vast and majestic. The mound is divided into three types: large, medium and small, of which the largest mound is 20 meters high and covers an area of 3,250 square meters. According to history, the shape of the tomb was originally a trapezoidal square, and after more than 2,000 years of wind and rain, it became the current round mound shape.

    In the Ming Dynasty, a tall beacon tower was built on the sealed mound. On January 13, 1988, it was announced as the third batch of national key cultural relics protection units.

    During the Qin and Han dynasties, the ethnic minorities in northern China rose rapidly and became an important threat to the Central Plains. Gaozu Baideng broke through and Emperor Wu.

    Ma Yi set up an ambush, Li Guang.

    Out of the Yanmen defeat, Wei Qing.

    Customize Xiang to attack Hu and Guangwu.

    Fanzhi was defeated, and Emperor Ling's defeat was ......Countless soldiers and soldiers, garrison officials, local wealthy families, and local people are scattered with bones, leaving behind the Han tombs that are now sealed like mounds.

    In 2002, 9 ancient tombs were cleaned and excavated due to the construction of the Universiade Expressway, 3 of which were earthen pit pit wooden coffin tombs, 3 were brick tombs in the front and back rooms, and 3 were multi-chamber brick tombs. The burial goods in the three wooden coffin tombs are characterized by bronze, ancient coins and lacquerware, mainly including tripods, bells, francium, plates, copper mirrors, copper lamps, etc., which are inferred to be tombs in the middle of the Western Han Dynasty. The excavated cultural relics of the six brick tombs are characterized by complete pottery and patterned floor tiles, and this pattern of multi-chamber tombs is in line with the habit of several generations of the Eastern Han family to be buried in one tomb, which is considered to be the tomb of the middle and late Eastern Han Dynasty.

    Guangwu was under the jurisdiction of Yinguan County of Yanmen County in the Han Dynasty, and Yinguan County was placed in the third year of the early Han Dynasty (154 BC), so it is inferred that the Guangwuhan Tomb should be the centralized cemetery of officials and wealthy families of Yanmen County and Yinguan County in the Han Dynasty.

    The Han tomb group is called "lying grain pile" by the local people. Legend has it that Yang Jiye was back then.

    Father and son resisted the Liao soldiers, camped here, and waited for military food and materials. Wang Xian, the superintendent, was jealous of his ability, and was afraid that Yang Jiye's father and son would steal the first credit, and they would not send the grain and grass for a long time. The Liao army closed the gate and did not fight, intending to consume the Song army's military supplies.

    Seeing that the grain and grass were less than three days, Yang Jiye was in a hurry to turn around in the Chinese army's tent. Suddenly, Liulang Yanzhao walked in and said, "Father, don't panic, you have a plan to solve your worries."

    With a few whispers, Yang Jiye nodded with a smile. That night, the Song army wrapped nearly 100 mounds of earth with reed mats, forming a grain and straw stack. The next morning, the Liao army looked at the Song camp from afar.

    The grass piles were like mountains, and it was suspected that the Song army's reinforcements had arrived last night, and it was expected that it would be difficult to confront and resist, so they hurriedly withdrew their troops to the north.
