Photos of The Tomb of Yang Guifei

The tomb of Concubine Yang Guifei is located in a place called "Mawei Slope" in ancient times, 12 kilometers west of Xingping City. The tomb of Concubine Yang Guifei is the tomb of Yang Yuhuan, the favorite concubine of Emperor Xuanzong Li Longji in Tang Dynasty, dating back more than 1,200 years. The tomb of Concubine Yang Guifei was originally an earthen mound. According to legend, the earth on the tomb has a pleasant fragrance and can beautify the face. Nearby women picked it up one after another, and even tourists from other places had to bring bags of burial soil back, so the tomb became smaller and smaller. In order to protect the tomb, it had to be covered with blue bricks. In this way, people can no longer take soil from the tomb. The entire cemetery is built on the mountain, in the shape of a ladder, with a majestic momentum. In the park, there are Tang Xiandian, blue brick tombs, and the stele corridors on both sides are inlaid with 32 stone inscriptions of poems and poems by celebrities and scholars in the later dynasties after the Tang Dynasty, and there are more than 300 poems. The 5.8-meter-high white marble statue of the imperial concubine stands in the garden, its shape is graceful and luxurious, and its expression is comfortable. In Yang Guifei's cemetery, there are Shengjing Garden, Taizhen Pavilion, Wangdu Pavilion and Guanyin Hall imitating Tang Dynasty buildings. Inside the building, there is a "Taizhen Entry Map", and eight groups of exhibition panels are inlaid around it, displaying historical facts and legends about "Mawei Double Mystery", "Relics of Imperial Concubine", "Dongdu Concubine" and so on. The "Song of Everlasting Sorrow Gallery" interprets Bai Juyi, a poem that has been sung through the ages, with 30 murals, showing the rise and fall from the prosperous age of Kaiyuan to Tianbao. There are also scenic spots such as Peony Garden, Peach Garden and Fish Viewing Pond in the scenic area.
