Where is the tomb of Cixi?
Located in Tangshan City, Hebei Province, it is the tomb of Emperor Xianfeng and Empress Xiao Qinxian of the Qing Dynasty. Ci 'an Mausoleum is called "Ding Dong Mausoleum of Puxiang Valley" and Ci 'xi Mausoleum is called "Ding Dong Mausoleum of Putuo Valley". These two mausoleums are located in the east of Dingling of Xianfeng Emperor, and they are affiliated mausoleums of Dingling of Xianfeng Emperor, so they are collectively called Ding Dong Mausoleum.

Lingnan is a tombstone pavilion, followed by Stone Arch Bridge, Shiping Bridge, East-West Courtyard, East-West Value Room, Long 'en Gate, Fansi Furnace, East-West Annex Hall, Long 'en Hall, Sanmen, Fifteenth Palace, Fangcheng, Minglou, Baocheng, Baoding and Underground Palace. Cixi Mausoleum is the most magnificent mausoleum building in the Qing Dynasty, such as the dragon and phoenix stone in front of the Long 'en Temple, which cuts through the cave, with a phoenix on the top and a dragon on the bottom, dancing with a vivid expression. The inner walls of the East-West Annex Hall are inlaid with brick carvings, and the paintings on the ceiling are all gilded. The bright pillars of the hall are decorated with golden dragons, and the hall is resplendent and dazzling.

1908 18 years 10/8 years, after 13 years of reconstruction, the project was finally completed (coincidentally, Cixi died four days later). Only three halls use 4592 Liang! The single stone in the mausoleum is carved by high relief and through carving technology, with the pattern "Dragon in the bottom, Phoenix in the top". Around Long 'en Temple, 69 white marble slabs are carved with "Phoenix attracts dragons to chase" everywhere, and 74 watchheads break the historical format of one dragon and one phoenix, all of which are "one phoenix presses two dragons", suggesting that she hangs curtains twice.

In the Qing Dynasty, only the Xianfeng Dynasty was the tomb of two queens, which was unique in the Qing Dynasty.
