Where exactly is the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang?

Where is the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang after his death, and why did Sima Qian describe his mausoleum in this way.

The Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is located 5 kilometers east of Linbang County, about 37 kilometers away from Xi'an City, leaning on Lishan Mountain in the south and Weishui in the north.

Lishan Lishan is a well-known scenic spot in ancient and modern China, adjacent to Huaqing Pond in the north and seven kilometers away from the eighth wonder of the world, the Qin Terracotta Warriors. Lishan is the land of Lirong in the Western Zhou Dynasty, so it is called "Lishan". Lishan is famous for its beauty, divided into east and west Xiuling, the forest in the park is verdant, and there are many ancient and famous trees, constituting a forest landscape of various forms.

The clouds and trees of Lishan are lush and green, and they have gone through the Zhou, Qin, Han and Tang dynasties" Guo Moruo made an appropriate description of the scenic scenery of Lishan and its historical status here. In 1982, Lishan was officially identified as the first batch of key scenic spots in the country. Since the Zhou, Qin, Han and Tang dynasties, it has been a tourist attraction here, and many palace villas have been built, known as thousands of households, attracting tourists of all generations.

The other two sources are: the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is located in Xiahe, 5 kilometers east of Lintong, and the panoramic village of Qin Shi Huang's Mausoleum.

2. Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, the mausoleum of the first emperor Ying Zheng (259-210 BC) in Chinese history, the first batch of world cultural heritage in China, the first batch of national key cultural relics protection units, and the national AAAAA-level tourist attraction, is located at the northern foot of Lishan Mountain, 5 kilometers east of Lintong District, Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province.

3. The Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang was built in the first year of the reign of King Qin (247 BC) to the second year of Qin II (208 BC), which lasted 39 years, and was the first large-scale and well-designed imperial mausoleum in Chinese history. There are two rammed earth walls inside and outside, symbolizing the imperial city and palace city of the imperial capital Xianyang. The mausoleum mound is located in the south of the inner city, is in the shape of a covered bucket, is 51 meters high now, and the bottom edge of Zhou Kaijia is more than 1,700 meters long.

According to historical records, there are also various palaces built in the Qin Tombs, and many strange treasures are displayed. There are a large number of burial pits and tombs with different shapes and connotations around the Qin Tombs, and more than 400 have been discovered, including the terracotta pit in the "Eighth Wonder of the World". The Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is one of the largest, most peculiar and richest imperial tombs in the world.

It fully expresses the artistic talent of the Han working people in ancient China more than 2,000 years ago, and is the pride and precious wealth of the Chinese nation.

1.Introduce.

Qin Shi Huang was one of the famous emperors of ancient China, and during his reign he unified the six kingdoms and ushered in a new era of feudalism in China. However, his tomb remains a mystery, and the Qin Tomb, known as the "Eighth Wonder of the World", is still one of the research hotspots for archaeologists. So, what about the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang?

2.Near Chang'an.

According to the historical records of the gods, the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is located in the Qinling area of Xianyang City, 30 kilometers north of Chang'an (now Xi'an, Shaanxi Province). However, due to the vicissitudes of history and the destruction of cultural relics, only some brick and stone inscriptions and relics remain at present.

3.Qin Terracotta Army.

The Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qin, part of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, is located in the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum in Lintong District, Xi'an, the ancient capital of China, and is a world-renowned cultural heritage and tourist attraction. After the unearthing of this terracotta warrior and horse, it attracted the attention of the world and became one of the important sites for the study of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang.

4.Puyang area.

There is also a theory that Qin Shi Huang did not arrange a mausoleum in the Qinling area, but chose a site in the Puyang area (present-day Puyang City, Henan Province). Because Qin Shi Huang built a palace in Puyang City and set up a shrine made of white marble in the palace, many researchers believe that this is the location of Qin Shi Huang's sacrificial mausoleum.

5.Open the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor.

Everyone is very curious about what the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang looks like, and one of the reasons is that the copper fish left by Qin Shi Huang was introduced by CCTV's "Let's Talk" program, which aroused the curiosity of many people. However, considering the protection work in the Qinling area, the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang has not yet been opened, so no matter where the mausoleum is located, it is necessary to wait until the relevant departments allow it to be opened before you can walk in.

6.The only chance.

Considering the importance of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor and the conservation work, the possibility of opening the Mausoleum is very small. After seeing the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, we may have seen the images of Qin Shi Huang during his lifetime, while the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang can only rely on imagination. Therefore, in our limited lives, seeing the Qin Terracotta Warriors seems to be the only opportunity to learn about the time of Qin Shi Huang in this way, and we should cherish it.

7.Epilogue.

Qin Shi Huang is known as one of the greatest eras in Chinese history, and the Qin Tombs are also a jewel in China's cultural heritage. No matter where the royal tomb is, it carries the expectations and yearning of countless people. I look forward to the day when we can walk into that former dynasty, have a deeper understanding of that period of history, and appreciate the greatness of Qin Shi Huang.
