Kangling was built in April of the 16th year of Zhengde (AD 152 1). In June of the first year of Jiajing (AD 1522), the cemetery was built. Mausoleum architecture consists of Shinto, Mausoleum Palace and ancillary buildings outside Mausoleum Palace. There are five empty bridges and three empty bridges on the Shinto, and the Shen Gong Shengde Monument Pavilion is built near the mausoleum. There are monuments and no words in the pavilion. The overall layout of the mausoleum building is circular, covering an area of 27,000 square meters. There are two yards ahead. The first is the courtyard, with the tomb door as the door, resting on the top of the mountain, with a single eaves and three rooms wide. There are five halls in the yard, five on the left and five on the right. Two sacred silk furnaces. The second one entered the hospital, with three doors in front, two rows of archway doors and a stone confession case, in which a stone incense burner, a candlestick and a vase were placed. Behind the square courtyard is a round treasure city. There is a square platform at the entrance of the treasure city. Above the platform is a Ming-style building with double eaves and built on the mountain. A sacred monument is erected in the building, inscribed with "Daming" and "Zong Yi Mausoleum of Emperor Wu". After the Ming building, the burial begins from the inside of the drainage ditch to the center, and the burial shape naturally rises. The front and slightly front sides of the tomb are respectively built with tomb walls less than the height of the chest. There is a glass screen wall at the urn road in Baocheng in front of the wall. There are some ancillary buildings outside the Mausoleum Palace, such as sacrificial pavilions, kitchens, shrines, temple sacrificial departments, shrine wardens, courtrooms, orchards, hazelnut factories and sacred stables.
