Tomb of Zuo Zongtang, Historical tomb in Tiaoma, China

The granite structure includes an entranceway and multiple pillars that frame the central burial area of the Qing dynasty military commander.

Following his death in Fuzhou during 1885, General Zuo Zongtang received this dedicated burial site completed in 1886 under Qing dynasty supervision.

The provincial government of Hunan designated this burial ground as a key cultural heritage site in 1996, recognizing its regional importance.

Visitors can reach the tomb by taking a fifteen-minute taxi ride from Changsha South Railway Station to the Tiaoma district location.

During the Cultural Revolution, Red Guards damaged the original tomb structure, leading to reconstruction efforts initiated for the centenary in 1986.
