Hurtige fakta: The mausoleum complex took over 25 years and 100,000 laborers to complete. Its massive stone tortoise, weighing over 80 tons, is one of the largest ancient stone sculptures in China.
Højdepunkter: Walk the Sacred Way lined with 12 colossal stone animals, each carved from a single block of granite standing silently for over 600 years. The square brick "Soul Tower" rises 33 meters high, its red walls and golden roof glowing sharply against the green forest canopy.
