In the history of more than 2,000 years in China, hundreds of emperors have emerged, and almost every emperor has built a grand, luxurious and magnificent mausoleum, which is built on auspicious soil and geomantic treasures. In the emperor's mind, the two are equally important. In the eyes of the world, it seems that people tend to pay more attention to the palace and despise the imperial tomb. That's understandable.
The characteristics of this palace
Palaces can be passed down for decades or even centuries. The most representative of imperial power is Bao Xi, 20 square Bao Xi in Ming Dynasty and 25 square Bao Xi in Qing Dynasty. The tomb is not like this. An emperor has a mausoleum, which was built in different times. At that time, the country's political, economic, military, cultural, scientific and technological conditions were different.
Every emperor's hobbies and interests are different, so every imperial tomb has the distinctive characteristics of that era. Therefore, from the perspective of historical research, the imperial tomb is more important than the palace.
