Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum

This tomb of Zhu Yuanzhang (1328-98), founder of Ming dynasty, is the model for Ming and Qing dynasty emperors in Beijing. Zhu Yuanzhang is the only Ming dynasty emperor to be buried in Nanjing. UNESCO recently funded its renovations and touchups and made the site a World Heritage Site. However, the tomb descriptions still remain only in Chinese. The tomb sits in the Ming Tower, a rectangular tower in the main part of the tomb. One of the other main buildings at the mausoleum, the Sacrificial Palace, was built in 1383 and houses memorial tablets.More
