Tuxieyetu Prince’s Mansion Ruins

　　   The Tuxieyetu Prince’s Mansion Ruins are situated in the blessed land of the Horqin Grassland — Daqintala Grassland, boasting a history of more than 130 years. The Tuxieyetu Prince’s Mansion was constructed during the reign of the 13th Tuxieyetu Jasak Prince, Bao Dorji (from the 10th year of the Tongzhi era to the 16th year of the Guangxu era of the Qing Dynasty, i.e., 1871–1890). Over three hundred years ago, the leader of the Horqin tribe, Ooba, was granted the title of “Tuxieyetu Khan” by Nurhaci. In 1636, Ooba’s eldest son, Badarile, was appointed as a prince, becoming the first-generation Tuxieyetu Prince and ranking first among the 49 banners of nobles in Inner Mongolia. By the time of the 13th generation, Bao Dorji inherited the princely title and modeled the Tuxieyetu Prince’s Mansion after the layout of Beijing’s Forbidden City.
