Yongxi Mausoleum Review

Inconvenient transportation! I went by motorcycle with my friends! The museum is worth a visit! Many folk streets are not open! The No. 3 Mausoleum can be seen in front of it. In fact, there are a few large mounds of pictures on the Xingtai in front of the Mausoleum. The interior of the tomb cannot be entered! Some orchard pine trees on the way, it should be a little better to go in summer! The entrance of the scenic spot is selling Helanshi pendants and seals, and the others are not open! In short, there is still a certain harvest ～～

The management and development of the scenic spot is very general. I went purely to feel the atmosphere of the fallen Xixia Dynasty. I like history and it is worth a visit. First of all, let’s talk about transportation. I went to Wangling from the film and television city. There is no special line car, only black car. Of course, it is not convenient to return to the city in the end. The scenic spot is just a museum, an art museum, and a king's tomb. The museum has no sound and text explanation. When I went there, there happened to be a government leader to visit and explained it to the tour guide. The art museum is actually a short history of the Xixia Dynasty through some statues, and I don't understand why it is called an art museum, and I don't see any objects that can be called art. Wangling is simpler, a lonely large mound, but there is a Chinese and English introduction, it seems not as good as the photo of the double tomb on the Internet.

We arrived at four o'clock in the afternoon, a little cold in mid-October, not many tourists, the rainy sky is still a little dark, Xixia Wang Mausoleum seems so vicissitudes and loneliness, in the No. 1 Mausoleum, just under the sun, the whole picture is very in line with the artistic conception of Xixia Wang Mausoleum. Very good attraction, although the fare is a bit expensive.

In winter, there are very few people, and Trip.com is very convenient to pick up tickets. Go in to see three points, museums, art museums and No. 3 Ling. After the introduction of the museum interpreter and the vivid history of the art museum, I will go to No. 3 Ling to strongly feel the rise and fall of the Xixia Dynasty. The vast mausoleum is worth seeing!

The most abundant dynasty in Chinese history belongs to the Northern Song Dynasty, which is also one of the peak periods of the development of Chinese civilization. 🗺 There were 9 emperors in the Northern Song Dynasty. In addition to Song Huizong and Song Qinzong's father and son were taken away by the Jin people and died in Yilan, Heilongjiang, the remaining 7 emperors were buried in Gongyi, Henan, plus the tomb of Zhao Yu, the father of Song Taizu, collectively known as the "Seven Emperors and Eight Tombs". ⛰ But after the change of Jingkang, the imperial tomb of the Northern Song Dynasty was looted by the Jin people. During the Yuan Dynasty, it was all a ruin. Since then, Songling has been a tattered appearance, leaving only the statue of the gods in front of the tomb. 🗿 Yongxi Mausoleum is located in the village of Xicun Township, Gongyi City, Henan Province. A small tributary of the Yiluo River, Wuluo River, bypassed it, and the tomb owner Song Taizong Zhao Yu slept here. ☁️ Zhao Yu, Zhao Yu's brother was originally named Yiyi. Zhao Yu called the emperor and gave him the name Guangyi. In 976, Zhao Yuran died, Guangyi excused his mother, Queen Du, after saying that "brother not son", and entered the throne of God, at the age of 38, changed his name. At the age of 59, he died from an arrow injury. He was in power for 21 years (976-997). 🌾 The stone statues of Yongxi Mausoleum are exposed in the fields, and local villagers planted wheat on the land in front of the mausoleum. The stone statues were not only the guardian of the Northern Song emperor in the millennium years, but also the villagers who lived and reproduced here for generations. The stone statues are majestic and artistic. Its stone sheep lie tall and have a beautiful image. From the plastic arts or carving techniques, it is the best in Songling. 🪨 Compared with other Songling stone carvings, Yongxiling stone carving works are taller, the portraits are full of face, the expression is majestic, and the immersive people feel the pressure. Its body size is large and thick, and the proportion is not the same, but looking up near the front has strengthened the sense of greatness of the body, and the proportion of the head and the whole body is just right. 😯 Visiting guide 📝 1⃣️ Yongxiling is not an ordinary scenic spot, and no tickets are required. 📍 Xicun Township, on the outskirts of Gongyi City, Yucun Village. You can take a taxi from the city, about 25 minutes. 🚗 2⃣️ Before going to Yongxi Ling, it is recommended to visit the Gongyi Museum in the city center to learn about the history of the Song Dynasty and see the excavated cultural relics. 🏢 3⃣️ It is not recommended to take a photo with the mound or tombstone in front of the mausoleum to show respect for the tomb owner. 📷 #Meet the Beauty of China #Explore Cultural Relics #Traveling and taking pictures without showing your face
