Tomb of Duke Ling of Wei

Category: Tourist Attractions 👁 100 views

The Tomb of Duke Ling of Wei is located north of Weilinggong Village in Tangfang Township, separated from local farmhouses by a road and east of Tangfang Village. It is said to be the tomb of Duke Ling of Wei from the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, there was a tombstone in front of the mound and a Temple of Duke Ling of Wei, which enjoyed considerable incense offerings all year round. During the Spring and Autumn period, this area belonged to the State of Qi and was about 300 kilometers from the capital of the State of Wei (present-day Yuyang, Henan). There are no historical records explaining why Duke Ling of Wei was buried here; moreover, the State of Qi also had a Duke Ling, whose burial site remains unclear. Therefore, it is considered a dubious tomb. Currently, the ancient tomb still has an earthen mound about 7 meters high and 135 meters in circumference.
