Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum Review

The blue bricks and green moss, the history of the years precipitation, came to Ming Xiaoling for the second time, the last time was 12 years ago, the simplicity of Ming Xiaoling City Wall Q formed a stark contrast with the modern city, it seemed to be a silent guardian, witnessing the changes and development of the times. Walking on the wall of Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum, feeling the weight of history and cultural heritage, as if in a magnificent and magnificent picture.

If you only go to Shendao and the Mausoleum, it is recommended to enter Gate 5 and not go back. We took a taxi to Gate 5 on the weekend, but when we arrived at Gate 3, the driver put us down. Gate 3 went to Shixiang Road, which happened to be in the middle of Shixiang Road. In addition, Gate 1 is the junction of the two sections of Shendao. It needs to be turned back to take the two sections of Shendao. We enter the 3rd door and exit the 3rd door. We only go to Shendao and the Mausoleum. It takes time to take the children to walk slowly.

It is worth it. You need to buy a 30 yuan shuttle bus coupon in advance, which can be used unlimited times. It is far between the scenic spots and can be exhausted by walking. Ming Xiaoling has a shuttle station point from Gate 7.

Entering the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum, the first thing that came into view was "Dachengmen", and Zhu Ying's personal inscription "Huang Xuyu" on the door, which means that the Daming River and Mountains are stable. Through Dachengmen, it is the "stone step up the sky", a ramp made of natural marble slabs, about 380 meters long, with 17 steps staggered, representing Zhu Ying's 17 years in office. Going to the middle, it is "stone road through the secluded", with lush trees and flowers on both sides, making people feel more comfortable. Go forward, it is "Xianling Gate", in front of the door there are Zhu Yu's title "Xianling" two big words. The middle of the door is the gods, and the stone carvings such as stone horses, stone sheep, stone beasts are very spectacular.
