This is a large-scale and luxuriantly decorated underground palace. The underground palace is 28 meters long, 8.96 meters wide and 6.59 meters high, and only the restored steps reach 44 meters. Down the steps is the underground palace, which is nine meters deep. The underground palace gate is tall and majestic, and the emperor's spirit is undoubtedly evident. The underground palace is exquisite and luxurious, and its plane is a quadrangle layout with three entrances and three halls. Doors, windows and columns are all carved with imitation stone wood, and the whole tomb looks like the palace where the tomb owner was born.
The three gates of the tomb are tall and heavy, the tomb is spacious, and the surrounding tomb walls are beautifully painted and carved, which is exquisite against the light.
King Shu lived in Chengdu in the Ming Dynasty/king kloc-0/0/king kloc-0/3. After his death, he was buried in Phoenix Mountain and Tianhui Mountain, with Zhengjue Mountain as the most concentrated area. Royal tombs are concentrated in one place and have been customized from the Tang Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty. The location and layout of tombs pay more attention to feng shui, which is the so-called mausoleum.
Shu Wang Mi was a great vassal of the Ming Dynasty, built in Chengdu, and Sichuan was called the land of abundance in ancient times. Shu occupies seven-tenths of fertile land in Chengdu Plain and is one of the richest palaces in Ming Dynasty. Therefore, the tombs of Shu kings in past dynasties were extremely luxurious. The tombs of Wang Nuo and Wang Zhao, which have been excavated in ten tombs, have been more than 560 years ago. Among them, the owner of Shu Nuo Tomb is Shu Ming Wang Zhu Youkuang, and the tomb is located from northeast to southwest (Genshan Xiang Kun). Zhu Youkuang is the direct grandson of Chun Zhu, the eleventh son of Zhu Yuanzhang and the eleventh son of Ming Taizu (Chun Zhu was also the first generation of Shu king in Ming Dynasty). Wang Nuo was born in 1409.
During 1979, due to the construction of Shiling Middle School (now Shiling Junior Middle School), the underground palace was accidentally dug. It was flooded at first, but I don't know where the water went and disappeared out of thin air. Later, the underground mausoleum was discovered, and more than 500 precious cultural relics were unearthed, including stone tablets, burnt stoves, glazed terracotta warriors and dancers. The ground building of Shunuo Tomb was destroyed early, and its original appearance is difficult to verify, but its underground building is well preserved. Its underground palace is a quadrangle with three entrances and three halls. From the tomb door to the tomb, there are the gate, vestibule, vestibule, atrium, main hall, backyard, back hall and tomb in turn. Imitating the palace of the prince before his death, the underground palace imitates the form of "living room", which is also a feature of the Ming and Qing emperors' tombs. The underground palace is beautifully carved. Although the paintings have faded, you can still imagine the grandeur at that time. Walking down the stone steps, you can see the nine-meter-deep underground palace at the entrance to the underground palace. Standing in front of you is a well-preserved stone tablet with seven characters "Shu Ming Xi Wang Jizhi" engraved vertically, and the inscription font is meaningful and vigorous; There is also a room at the end of the underground palace with a sarcophagus bed inside. There is a rectangular soil trough in the center of the sarcophagus platform and the soil applied in the trough, which is similar to the mud and sand under the gold bottle in the folk bone-setting tower in China, and may symbolize the grounding of Feng Shui. Only in this way can the earth be ventilated and its soul can freely enter and leave the underworld through this passage.
Interestingly, it is said that when archaeologists entered the tomb, they found two skeletons, one of which was undoubtedly Wang Nuo, and the other was supposed to be a grave robber. In the legend of ancient tombs, there are always stories of grave robbers.
