Xuzhou Guishan Han Tomb | Thousand-year-old underground tomb.

| Thousand-year-old tomb palace. Guishan Han Tomb | The only tomb of the King of Chu of the Western Han Dynasty with a clear identity|||🪦🪦🪦 Many tombs of Chu kings from the Western Han Dynasty have been discovered in Xuzhou area, but only the Guishan Han Tomb has unearthed a seal indicating the identity and era of the tomb owner, from which it was concluded that the tomb owner was Liu Zhu, the sixth generation King of Chu. 🏗🏗🏗 All of the Guishan Han Tombs were carved into the mountain. The 15 tombs are interconnected, forming a huge underground palace. The house of King Liu Zhu of Chu (reigned 128 BC - 116 BC) had 10 rooms, including a front hall, a music and dance hall, an armory, and a chariot and horse room. There was even a well and a horse drinking pool, with a total area of ​​more than 700 square meters. The roof of the room was carved into two sloping roofs, with pointed roofs and bucket-shaped roofs on the four corners, making it tall and spacious. The excavation of the tunnels was particularly precise. The two tunnels are 56 meters long and 1.78 meters wide respectively, and the maximum deviation along the center line is only 5 millimeters. 🪄🪄🪄 The tomb was destroyed by looting, and the distribution of the wooden structures and burial objects in the tomb is no longer clear, and there is no trace of the burial objects. During the excavation, only a large number of tiles and a small number of funerary objects were found, which were all smashed and scattered randomly in various rooms. They were also found in corridors and tomb passages. . ✅Guishan Scenic Area is divided into three scenic spots: Guishan Han Tomb p1-13 Dianshiyuan Stone Carving Art Museum p14-16 Imperial Edict Museum p17-18 . Fortunately and unfortunately, I was the only tourist when I visited... The atmosphere of the tomb raider is 120%, but I'm scared🥲 The tomb passage is long and deep, with many tomb chambers and dim lighting. It was so quiet that I didn't dare to breathe or look back. When I was looking at the coffin, I was excited and nervous. I wanted to stop and admire it for a while, but I also wanted to leave quickly (I am such a coward… But the experience of going into the tomb is absolutely perfect! ! ! Red chicken! . 🟢The Guishan Han Tomb is known as the [Oriental Pyramid]. It covers an area of ​​more than 700 square meters and has a volume of more than 2,600 cubic meters. It almost hollowed out the entire mountain. How the ancients constructed it is also an unsolved mystery. This tomb is the joint tomb of Liu Zhu, the sixth king of Chu Xiang in the Western Han Dynasty. It has 15 chambers of different sizes with clear priorities. It has bedrooms, living rooms, toilets, stables, kitchens, etc., which are almost the same as when they were alive, fully reflecting the ancient people's concept of "treating the dead as if they were alive". . There are several interesting points about this tomb: The stone at the entrance of the tomb passage was engraved with something like "There are only coffins and remains in the tomb, no gold or silver treasures, no need to bother stealing" (obviously no one believed it, because the tomb had been robbed hhh A life-size shadow is clearly visible on the north wall of the coffin chamber of the King of Chu. Some people think it is caused by long-term water seepage or different stone quality. Some people also say it is a wandering soul of the King of Chu. This is also one of the mysteries of the Guishan Han Tomb (it really looks a bit like a person, I am afraid p10 The high-end toilets of the Han Dynasty, hahaha, I've learned a lot Also, p9: In ancient times, men and women had different carriages. The carriages for women were very small and confined. If it were a 1:1 replica, I really don’t know how ancient women could have gotten in… . 🟢Dianshiyuan Stone Carving Art Museum: The exhibition hall, which combines brick carvings and wood carvings, displays stone tablets, stone lions, archways, etc. collected by the owner from various places.
