清东陵
Part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site "Imperial Tombs of the Ming and Qing Dynasties". Five Qing Emperors are buried here, including the Shunzhi Emperor, the first Qing emperor to conquer all of China, the Kangxi Emperor, the longest reigning emperor in Chinese history, regarded by many to be the greatest of the Qing emperors, and the Qianlong emperor, China's longest living emperor who also ruled over a period of prosperity. Another notably burial here was that of Empress Dowager Cixi, who reduced emperors to a puppet roles while she held the actual power in the last days of the Qing Dynasty. Most of the tombs except the Shunzhi Emperor's tomb were looted amid the turmoil following the fall of the Qing Dynasty, and four of them have their burial chambers open to the public; the tomb of the Qianlong Emperor, the tomb of Empress Dowager Cixi, and two tombs of the Qianlong Emperor's concubines. The tomb of the Qianlong Emperor in particular is known for the intricate Buddhist carvings on the walls of its burial chamber. The main Sacred Way leading to the Shunzhi Emperor's tomb is the longest one in China, measuring over 6 km in length.
万佛园, Garden of Ten Thousand Buddhas
Compared to the Eastern Qing Tombs, the Wanfo Garden is a fairly modern place, having been established in 1993. But the garden utilizes traditional Qing designs in order to maintain a certain synchronicity with the tombs.
