    20230521 Full day: 1. "Ming Zhaoling" is located in the 5A scenic spot "Ming Thirteen Tombs". The Ming Thirteen Tombs is the general name for the tombs of 13 emperors, 23 queens, 7 concubines, 2 princes, and 1 eunuch of the Ming Dynasty. It is a world cultural heritage located at the foot of Tianshou Mountain. Almost every imperial tomb occupies a hilltop. It took 235 years to build. Currently, only "Three Tombs and One Road" (Changling, Dingling, Zhaoling, Shenlu) and Kangling are open. The Thirteen Tombs were destroyed twice by Li Zicheng's peasant army and the Qing Regent Dorgon in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. In order to win the hearts of the Han subjects, the Qing Dynasty carried out large-scale restoration from the 50th to the 52nd year of Emperor Qianlong's reign (1785-1787), but it was robbed again during the Republic of China. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was overhauled twice in the 1980s and 2003 (during the application for World Heritage). Dingling is the only one of the 13 imperial tombs that has been officially excavated and opened to the public. ①Address: Changchi Road, Shisanling Town, Changping District, Beijing. ②Transportation: Direct bus access, easy to park by car. ③Peak season: None. ④Duration: 1 day. ⑤Notes: The imperial tombs are far apart, but there are bus stops, so self-driving is the best. 2. Zhaoling is the joint tomb of the 12th emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Longqing of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Zaiwei, and three queens, Li, Chen, and Li. It covers an area of ​​34,600 square meters and was built in the 17th year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty (1539). It was originally built by Emperor Jiajing for his biological parents (Emperor Zhengde Zhu Houzhao had no children, and his cousin Emperor Jiajing Zhu Houcong succeeded him after his death). It was later abandoned and rebuilt as Zhaoling in the 6th year of Longqing in the Ming Dynasty (1572). It was the first time that an imperial tomb occupied an underground palace built for someone else. Zhaoling was severely damaged and was rebuilt from 1987 to 1990. It became the first imperial mausoleum to be restored on a large scale among the Thirteen Tombs after the founding of the People's Republic of China. The pine wood used was imported from the United States. The regulations of Zhaoling are the same as those of Dingling, with the following special features: ① The small courtyard at the entrance: It is currently the "Exhibition of Historical Events of Honest Officials in the Ming Dynasty", which contains the life stories of famous Honest officials in the Ming Dynasty, such as Xuan Li, Wang Shu, Liu Jian, Xia Yuanji, Wang Jin, Zhou Xin, Kuang Zhong, Xue Xuan, Lu Mu, Yu Qian, Zhang Ju, Jiang Yao, and Lu Duo. ② The Monument of Divine Merit and Sacred Virtue: There are no words on the monument, and the monuments of sacred virtue in the mausoleums after Zhu Di are all without words. The pavilion was rebuilt in modern times. ③ The East Side Hall: It is used as the "Exhibition of Hai Rui's Life and Deeds", with a bronze statue of Hai Rui inside, and his life and deeds are introduced in the form of wax figures and pictures. ④ The West Side Hall: It is used as the "Exhibition of Zhaoling History", showing the comparison of photos before and after the restoration of Zhaoling, as well as the life of the tomb owner. ⑤Lian'en Hall: 5 rooms wide and 4 rooms deep, the interior restores the musical instruments used by descendants in worshipping Emperor Longqing, as well as the placement of sacrificial offerings. ⑥Minglou: The stele was cracked due to the burning of Li Zicheng's uprising army in the late Ming Dynasty, and it looks like a tortoise shell.

    The Ming Zhao Mausoleum is located in Changping, Beijing, and is the joint burial tomb of Zhu Zaiqi (Longqing, the year number) and his three queens of the 12th Emperor Mu Zongzhuang of the Ming Dynasty. Zhao Mausoleum is the first large-scale restoration and renovation of the Ming Tombs, and is also one of the official opening tourist attractions in the Tombs. The building area of Zhaoling Cemetery is 35,000 square meters. There are complete Shun Enmen, Shun En Temple and its east and west side halls, and Fangcheng, Minglou, Baoding, etc. There are buried here by Mu Zong Zhu Zaiqi and his three queens. Mu Zong, the year of Longqing (1537 ~ 1572), was a mediocre emperor in the 16th emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and he was unwilling to ask about government for six months, and never publicly expressed his political views for six years. Although Mu Zong did not care about government affairs, the suggestions and practices of the ministers were not opposed, such as the historically famous "Long Qing Discussion and Peace", which was promoted with the support of the ministers. Long Qing Discussion and Peace took place in Long Qing five years (1571), and there has been no major war between the Han and Mongolian communities for more than 20 years. No word stone turtle negative monument, erected in front of the gate of the monument, blank without words, may be because of the emperor's hard work. Tourists like to touch the stone turtle, the folk proverb: touch the wu 0, do not worry in life; touch the turtle , never get sick.

    Zhaoling in the Ming Tombs is a medium-sized building scale, is the 12th emperor Mu Zongzhu Zaiqi and three queens of the joint burial tomb, is the first large-scale restoration and repair of the cemetery, its biggest feature is to take the lead in forming a complete "dumb courtyard", that is, "crescent city" regulation. After entering the gate, I found that there was no inscription on the monument of God's Holy Spirit, and I didn't know if it was originally there, or if it disappeared in the years. After entering the gate of the temple, the East Pei Temple is to introduce the deeds of Hairui, the West Pei Temple is to introduce the exhibition of Emperor Muzong and the three queens, the temple of the temple is a scene of restoration sacrifice, enter the tomb door (three doors), pass through the door of the star, that is, see the stone five supply and the tall Ming Building behind, In addition to the disaster that Li Zicheng once suffered from fire in the period, the later stage also encountered thunder fire. Now the Linghao monument is made up of rubble. You can go to Fangcheng, follow the top of the Baocheng Wall, and turn around Baoding. I really found an uncle who was exercising in a circle! Friends interested in cultural relics history are worth a visit. Zhaoling is inconvenient in several attractions. Take No. 872 (Deshengmen to Changling) to Dingling and get off for about 80 minutes, then transfer to Chang67 to the end; or drop off from Dingling Road (Dingling) [Uber]. Free with a Splendid River and Mountain cartoon, full ticket 30 yuan, preferential treatment 15 yuan.

    Compared with the Changling Tombs, the main tomb of the Tombs, Zhaoling is not so grand, more like a reduced simplified version. Although simplified, but all kinds of regulated buildings have, the same is not lacking. Compared with the famous Wanli emperor's Dingling, its earth palace has not been excavated and opened. If you want to see the earth palace, you are estimated to go to the next door to see. The small Zhaoling is located in the west of the entire Mingling Scenic Area, relatively biased, but because of this, there are fewer people and it will not be as lively as the vegetable market. Walking inside to visit, it feels very quiet, because there are many trees, and it is comfortable to rest under the shade in summer. The city walls on Baocheng are also open. Interested people can surround Baocheng for a week, overlooking Changling, Dingling and the entire Ling District in the distance. When the weather is good, you can see the Mingling Reservoir. It feels very good.
