Zhaojun Tomb, Han dynasty mausoleum in Yuquan District, China.
The tomb forms a massive earthen mound reaching 33 meters in height and encompasses 13,000 square meters along the Da Hi River bank.
Built during the Western Han Dynasty, this burial site commemorates Wang Zhaojun, who married Xiongnu Emperor Hu Yan Ye Chan Yu in 33 BC.
The marriage between Wang Zhaojun and the Xiongnu Emperor established a diplomatic connection that maintained peace between two different societies for 60 years.
Visitors reach the tomb by taking bus number 1 from Hohhot Railway Station to transfer points for buses 10 or 44, with operating hours from 9:00 to 17:00.
The grass covering the burial mound maintains its green color through autumn while surrounding vegetation changes, leading to its name Green Mound.
