Hui Zhong Han Tomb
The Hui Zhong Han Tomb is a cultural relic protection unit of Hebei Province.
Hui Zhong Han Tomb. Located 600 meters northeast of Hui Zhong Village in present-day Jizhou Town, the tomb currently has a mound 9 meters high, stretching 90 meters from north to south and 70 meters from east to west, covering an area of nearly 7,000 square meters. Scattered broken bricks and tiles can be found on the tomb mound.
It is said that the tomb was originally shaped like a "turtle," and a Buddhist temple once stood atop the mound, commonly referred to by locals as the "Great Temple," which was later demolished. Legend has it that this mound was formed from the burning of lime, hence the name "Ash Mound" (Huizhong), which later evolved into its current name. In February 2001, it was designated as a cultural relic protection unit of Hebei Province.
