Tomb of Yang Can
杨粲墓
The joint tomb of Yang Can and his wife, chieftains of Bozhou in the Southern Song dynasty, whose intricate stone carvings have earned it the title of treasure trove of Song-dynasty tomb stone carving in southwest China.
The Tomb of Yang Can lies at Huangfenzui, on the southern outskirts of Honghuagang District, and is the joint burial site of Yang Can, Pacification Commissioner of Bozhou in the Southern Song dynasty, and his wife. The tomb chamber is built of stone, with nearly 200 relief panels on its walls depicting warriors, attendants, flowers, dragons and phoenixes. It is a precious artefact for studying Song-dynasty stone carving and chieftain culture, and is a nationally designated key cultural relic protection site. It lies about 8 kilometres from the city centre and can be reached by taxi. Allow about 45 minutes, and check opening times in advance.
