"Chariot", the ancient emperor's car, literally means the place where Genghis Khan set off by car. It can be understood that Genghis Khan became the leader of Mongolian ministries until he finally built the birthplace of the super Mongolian khanate across Eurasia. There is a great controversy about the location of Guqi Valley. Some people say it's in Inner Mongolia, some people say it's in outer Mongolia (now Mongolia), and some people say it's in Ningxia, Gansu, Xinjiang and Beijing.

Kyle. In his travels, Poirot believed that Genghis Khan was buried in Altai Mountain. "All Khan and Genghis Khan-their first master-must be buried on a high mountain called Altai after their death. No matter where they die, even if they are separated by a hundred days, it has become an unchangeable traditional practice of the royal family to transport the coffin there. " According to this statement, Qinian Valley is located in Altai Mountain area. Many people think Kyle? Poirot made a mistake, and even China's translation marked "This statement is wrong" at the bottom of the translation. But recent archaeological discoveries seem to prove that Kyle? Poirot's statement is not groundless. Near Haizi, Sandao, Qinghe, where Altai Mountain is located, Xinjiang archaeologists have discovered a mountain mausoleum with traces of human transformation, an ancient plank road built by Genghis Khan during his western expedition, and a passing "chariot", which is suspected to be the location of Genghis Khan's mausoleum.
After Stopping Recording by Amin writer Gong Zhiheng thinks that Guqi Valley is located in fangshan county, but there are few respondents.
Zhang Ren believes that all the emperors of the Yuan Dynasty died in the "Qilian Mountain" 90 miles north of Guihuacheng (now the old city of Hohhot, Inner Mongolia).
Zhang Mu, a writer of A Qing Dynasty, wrote The Tales of Mongolian Nomadic, arguing that "the place where the history began to call the Valley of Wheels was undoubtedly at the intersection of Sainuoyan Zuoyou Banner and Ordos Youzhong Banner", which was located in the northwest of Tengchong, Hetao.
Zhang, a well-known geographer in the Republic of China, wrote the Appraisal Book of Genghis Khan's Mausoleum Sleeping, and thought that there were "several earth ditches" in Etuoke Banner, Erdos City, Inner Mongolia. There is a legend here. 1226, Genghis Khan led the army to Xixia for the sixth time, and the silver-handled python whip in his hand fell to the ground when passing through Ejinhoro today. Genghis Khan thought that this was the place where he was buried a hundred years later, and immediately ordered the soldiers to build Aobao here as notes and bury the whip. The next year, after Genghis Khan died of illness, the body could not move forward when it passed through here, and the wheels of the hearse just did not move. Everyone bowed down and shouted "Chichario", and the wheels turned as expected, so they were buried here and named "Chichario Valley". "Yijinhuoluo" means the imperial tomb, which is where Genghis Khan's mausoleum is located today.
Historical Records of Mongolia, written by Tu Ji, a famous Mongolian historian in the Republic of China, holds that Guqi Valley is east of Cullen in Tubo Banner today.
Others think that the seven valleys are located in Li Qianshan. Near the Yellow River, there is a Li Qianshan Mountain (in present-day Inner Mongolia), and there is a ditch in the mountain called Qianligou. In Mongolian, it is "Qiele", which is homophonic with "Qie". "Qiqie Valley" is a homophonic change of "Qianligou". The evidence of this statement is that there are portraits of Genghis Khan and his family on Li Qian Mountain, and there are more than 100 abandoned ancient wells nearby. These ancient wells are called "cold thoughts are ringing". It is said that this name is because Genghis Khan brought 108 hunting dogs when he went out to war. This should be the place where hundreds of thousands of troops under the command of Genghis Khan were stationed, and Genghis Khan was buried here after his death.
In the Southern Song Dynasty, Xu Ting verified Peng Daya's Black Tatar, and thought that the Tiki Valley should be on the bank of the Krulun River (now in Mongolia, translated into Lugou River). "See te didn't really tomb, on the lugou river, surrounded by mountains and rivers. According to legend, te was not really born here, so she died and was buried here. I don't know if he was born here. " But the author himself seems to have insufficient confidence in this statement, calling it "unknown fruit or not." However, modern archaeology has added new evidence. Around the 1990s, a joint Japanese and Mongolian archaeological team used satellite equipment to find a large number of ancient tombs of Mongolian nobles in this area, which proved to be the burial places of ancient Mongolian aristocratic families. Whether the tombs of Genghis Khan and other emperors of the Yuan Dynasty were hidden in them was not answered later.
Written in the19th century, The History of Duosan Mongolia holds that its border valley should be in the Burhan mountain area at the source of three rivers, such as Wonan River, Cheru River and Tumen River, that is, the Kent mountain area in Mongolia today. This statement echoes the Lugou River recorded in A Brief History of Black Tatars. One said the river, the other said the mountain, all in this area. Many modern scholars believe this place, because it is the birthplace of Genghis Khan's Bolzigit family, and all the emperors in the Yuan Dynasty may have buried their ancestors. It is said that it is also the designated burial place of Genghis Khan. There is a legend that Genghis Khan once thought for a long time under an elm tree in Kent Mountain, and suddenly stood up and had a brainwave and told his entourage that he would be buried here after his death.

However, there are also views that the so-called ancient theory is a cover-up for Genghis Khan's descendants. In fact, Genghis Khan was buried near Liupanshan (now Ningxia) where he died of illness. According to Mongolian customs in the past, a person's body will rot after death, so his soul can't go to heaven. Generally speaking, his body will be buried within three days. Genghis Khan died in the summer, so it is impossible to send the body all the way back to the birthplace.
Archaeologists in the former Soviet Union believed that Genghis Khan was buried at the bottom of Lake Baikal. This statement may be considered impossible by many people, but it finds a reason from China's ancient geomantic theory. According to the theory of geomantic omen, a treasure house of geomantic omen can be a water city. If it is buried in a "water city", it depends on the level of the tide and the innocence of the water. If the tide rises like a faucet and the water is silver, it is good luck. Obviously, Lake Baikal is a water city and a treasure trove of geomantic omen.
Why are there so many explanations about the burial place of Genghis Khan? There is reason to believe that the descendants of Genghis Khan deliberately spread false information. But why can't I find the mausoleum of Genghis Khan so far? The fundamental reason is the "secret burial" of the Yuan emperor, which made the descendants of Genghis Khan confused about where their ancestors were buried. Secret burial, also called hidden burial, is a secret burial to avoid being noticed by outsiders, which is advocated by Mongols. If scholars like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, such as Bu Jidi, Ying Gong, Qi Shanling and Song Lian, don't go around when compiling the history of the Yuan Dynasty, they will only give four words: "Buried in the valley".
The burial style of emperors in Yuan Dynasty is different from that of emperors in Central Plains. In the past, Mongolians believed in Shamanism, and it was the soul, not the bone, that sacrificed to their ancestors. The soul was not buried, that is, the soul was valued over the bone. Therefore, relatively speaking, unlike * * *, tombs for burying bones are particularly valued, and the handling of bones is relatively simple.
