Yongling Tomb of the Qing Dynasty
清永陵
The mausoleum of the ancestors of the Qing emperors, the first of the “Three Imperial Tombs Outside the Pass,” and part of the World Heritage “Imperial Tombs of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.”
The Qing Yongling is located in Yongling Town, Xinbin County. It holds the remains of Nurhaci’s sixth-generation ancestor, great-grandfather, grandfather and father, among others. It is the earliest of the Three Imperial Tombs Outside the Pass. In 2004 it was added as an extension to the World Heritage “Imperial Tombs of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.” The mausoleum grounds are set against Qiyun Mountain, and the stele pavilions for the four ancestors stand side by side. The layout is simple yet solemn. Admission follows the rates published by the scenic area. It is about 5 km from Hetu Ala City, and visiting both makes for a good half-day trip.
