Shaanxi is a place with good feng shui and beautiful landscapes. If it weren't for poverty, it would have been the capital of our country! Why is it a place with good feng shui? Because all the emperors in our country rule the state affairs there.
During that short time, I visited places of interest in Shaanxi and the experimental base of agricultural science and technology. Such as Terracotta Warriors, Yangling, Maoling, Chaoling and the Big Wild Goose Pagoda in Xi. . . . . One of the most haunting things for me is the tomb of Princess Oversoul Yongtai!
My family got on the bus and went to Princess Yongtai Cemetery in Ganling, which is a part of Chaoling in Princess Yongtai Cemetery. The beautiful scenery along the way attracts people's admiration from time to time.
Princess Yongtai, named Li Xianhui, is the granddaughter of Tang Gaozong Li Zhi and Wu Zetian, and the seventh daughter of Emperor Li Xian. She died in the first year of Wu Zetian Dazu at the age of seventeen. Li Xian named his daughter Yongtai because he wanted her to be healthy forever. When you walk into the tomb gate, you will see that the gate is more than 20 meters high and 10 meters wide. Further on, there is a hole the size of a small warehouse on the left and right sides, which contains ceramic figures and bottles and cans of different shapes. Some little people hold hands together, their hair is rolled into an egg roll, and their chests are leaning forward. They look beautiful, just like young girls who think they are slim and graceful.
Take a few more steps, and you will find a cave the size of a window overhead. Listen to the narrator's aunt said: "The more caves there are, the higher the social status of the tomb owner." I counted and found seven. It seems that this princess Yongtai has a high status! There is an inscription 3 meters long and 2 meters wide under the fourth cave, which is a brief introduction to Princess Yongtai's life. It says: Princess Yongtai was buried with her husband, and the cause of death of Princess Yongtai was abortion. But there is also a saying that Princess Yongtai was killed by Wu Zetian because she spoke ill of her behind her back. The cause of death is unknown. "When you go to the last cave, you will find that the tomb door is not completely opened, but a hole is dug in the middle. Obviously, it must have been stolen. The grave robbers were afraid of hidden weapons, so they dug a hole in the middle of the tomb door so as not to be stabbed by hidden weapons. Inside the tomb door, there is a hole that a person can barely climb into, and there is a card on it, which reads: thief. Three striking Chinese characters. It turns out that this tomb was stolen as early as the Qing Dynasty. The commentator said: "Before the ancient tomb was developed, archaeologists found a mummy and it was stolen. It is estimated that this corpse was a thief of the Qing Dynasty, and of course his companion, who was greedy for money, was pushed down and died, along with jewels scattered all over the floor. It shows that the thief was in a panic at that time. "
Walking on, we saw a huge sarcophagus, carved from stone, 2 meters high and 65,438+00 meters wide. There are many drops of water on the sarcophagus because there are many visitors. The coffin is also inlaid with lace similar to the eaves, carved with maids. Just like Qin Shihuang, you can fight with soldiers after death. Princess Yongtai can be served by a maid even after her death.
Although I visited the tomb of the ancient royal family, I didn't witness the beauty of Princess Yongtai during the visit. What a pity. Because the ancient tomb was just discovered, the archaeologists had no experience in keeping it, and the remains were not properly kept. Because of improper keeping, it was lost on the way to a higher research institution.
China has a long history, and its ancient cultural heritage shows the wisdom of ancient people in China. Foreigners are surprised by the history and culture of China, because they have seen our long-standing cultural heritage in China! I am proud of the historic sites in China!
I love my hometown-Shaanxi, its mountains, its water and its cultural heritage!
I praise your hometown-Shaanxi!
