An open-air exhibition hall of stone carving art from the Tang Dynasty.

Explore the thousand-year-old cultural heritage and witness the new chapter of the Silk Road! The 5th stop of the High-Quality Development Tour in China is ✨ Qianling Museum ✨, a Chinese tomb museum and a key national cultural relic protection unit, located 80 km from Xi'an. 👉 The Tomb of Princess Yongtai is located southeast of Qianling and is one of the 17 tombs accompanying Qianling. It is the largest and best-preserved tomb of a Tang Dynasty woman excavated since the founding of the People's Republic of China. 👉 Qianling is a model of the Tang Dynasty imperial tomb system and the joint burial site of Emperor Gaozong of Tang, Li Zhi, and Wu Zetian, the only female emperor in Chinese history. It is the only joint burial tomb of an emperor and empress in the world, which has not yet been excavated. Visitors can only see the Wordless Stele, the Shushengji Stele, the stone statues of Zhonglang General, stone lions, winged horses, high-relief ostriches, horsemen, and more. These more than 100 large stone carvings are known as the "open-air exhibition hall of stone carving art from the Tang Dynasty."
