King Qian Mausoleum

The tomb complex of Qian Liu, King of Wuyue: Construction began in 932 AD (the 3rd year of Changxing reign in Later Tang Dynasty) after Qian Liu's death and took two years to complete. In 1912, descendants of the Qian family rebuilt Qian Liu's tomb and the King Qian Ancestral Hall. The tomb is located on the southern slope of Taimiao Mountain, with its head resting against the mountain. It features a traditional feng shui layout with "green dragon on the left and white tiger on the right" embracing the site, facing Shijing Mountain as its front altar. A large stele erected during the Daoguang era of Qing Dynasty stands before the tomb, inscribed with: "Tomb of King Qian, Posthumously Honored as Wusu, Marshal of All Under Heaven's Military Forces, Imperial Mentor, and Former Chancellor of Wuyue Kingdom." As the only well-preserved royal mausoleum in Zhejiang Province, it is now a National Key Cultural Relics Protection Unit.
