Western Qing Tombs, Imperial necropolis in Yi County, China
The Western Qing Tombs cover 1,842 hectares of land and contain four royal mausoleums housing seventy-eight members of the Qing imperial family.
Construction of the tombs started during the Yongzheng Emperor's reign, with the first burial site, Tailing, completed in 1737 after his death.
The mausoleum complex incorporates spirit roads, courtyard palaces, and sacrificial altars that reflect traditional Chinese burial practices and architectural principles.
Located 140 kilometers southwest of Beijing, the tombs feature information guides and preserved structures that demonstrate Qing dynasty architectural techniques.
The site includes stone pathways with sculptures of mythical creatures and guardian figures intended to protect the imperial remains in their afterlife.
