Empress Dowager's Tomb of Huiling

The Empress Dowager's Tomb of Huiling is a cultural tourism attraction.

The Empress Dowager's Tomb of Huiling is located in Xishuangshan Valley on the west side of Huiling, serving as the burial site for the consorts of Emperor Muzong of the Qing Dynasty, Aisin-Gioro Zaitian (Emperor Tongzhi).

The Empress Dowager's Tomb of Huiling was modeled after the Consorts' Tomb of Dingling. The main structures from south to north are: a single-arch bridge, a three-arch flat bridge on the east side, east and west wing rooms, east and west guard rooms, the main gate, an eastern crematorium, the Hall of Enfeoffment, the Tomb Gate, with underground chambers beneath each burial mound, all enclosed by red walls. The buildings outside the main gate are topped with gray-tiled roofs, while those inside have green-glazed tile roofs.

The tomb houses the remains of four Imperial Noble Consorts: Imperial Noble Consort Shushen, Imperial Noble Consort Xianzhe, Imperial Noble Consort Ronghui, and Imperial Noble Consort Shushen. The burial mound of Imperial Noble Consort Shushen is located at the center of the front row, while the other three are in the back row. On the east side: Imperial Noble Consort Gongsu, Imperial Noble Consort Xianzhe, and Imperial Noble Consort Ronghui.
