Tian Qi Royal Tombs
田齐王陵
A group of Warring States royal tombs of the Tian Qi dynasty at the foot of Niushan, south of Linzi. Massive earthen mounds in a row are known as the "Four Kings' Mounds."
The Tian Qi Royal Tombs are the burial grounds of the Tian clan rulers of Qi during the Warring States period, and they are a nationally protected heritage site. The most striking features are four enormous earthen mounds lined up east to west, known locally as the "Four Kings' Mounds," with the Two Kings' Mound nearby. The mounds rise like small hills, and climbing one gives views over the Linzi plain, a reminder of Qi's days as an "Eastern Hegemon." The site is open to visitors, but facilities are basic. It is best combined with the Guan Zhong Memorial Hall and Guan Zhong's tomb nearby, which requires a taxi or a car.
