Xianling Tomb of the Ming Dynasty, Imperial mausoleum in Shisanling, China.
The Xianling tomb features multiple courtyards, ceremonial halls, and stone sculptures within a complex surrounded by mountain ranges north of Beijing.
Emperor Zhu Yuyuan received this burial place in 1519, which underwent substantial modifications when his son became the Jiajing Emperor in 1521.
The mausoleum incorporates traditional Chinese architectural elements with stone sculptures representing imperial authority through gates, archways, and ceremonial spaces.
Visitors need to arrange transportation from Beijing to reach this tomb, which requires walking through multiple gates and courtyards to explore the site.
The tomb contains a serpentine wall extending 3.6 kilometers around the burial complex, integrating natural landscape elements into its design.
