Tomb of Huo Qubing, Archaeological site near Maoling Mausoleum, Xingping, China
The tomb features sixteen stone carvings depicting animals such as galloping horses, bulls, and tigers placed around a cone-shaped mound of soil and rock.
General Huo Qubing, who commanded troops at age eighteen and led successful military campaigns against the Xiongnu, received this burial site from Emperor Wu Di.
The central statue 'Horse Treads on the Hun' measures 1.9 meters long and represents a significant advancement in Han Dynasty stone carving techniques.
The tomb complex includes protective buildings for the stone carvings and connects to the Maoling Museum, offering visitors access to additional historical exhibits.
Natural rocks were arranged to form a mound resembling the Qilian Mountain, commemorating the general's military victories in that specific geographical region.
