Introduction

This scenic spot is the tomb of the ancestor of the Chinese nation, the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan Shi. It is said that the Yellow Emperor once ascended to heaven, so the tomb is designed in the form of formal attire. The scenic area includes Xuanyuan Temple and the Huangdi Mausoleum Garden, which has 16 ancient cypress trees, the most precious of which was personally planted by Xuanyuan Huangdi over 5000 years ago. The three big characters "Huangdi Mausoleum" in front of the tomb were proposed by Chiang Kai-shek, and the national grand sacrifices of the dynasties were held here.
