As we all know, the emperor's tomb is a place where the ancient Chinese emperors and their royal members died after their death. According to statistics, more than 200 emperors have appeared in Chinese history, and almost every of these many emperors will leave a "national treasure" after death. Because they believe that the luxury of the tomb can also be enjoyed after the death of the tomb, the ancient emperors have always attached great importance to the construction of the mausoleum, and they spend a lot of manpower and material and financial resources to build it during their lifetime. However, not every emperor will leave a grand mausoleum after the death. For example, the emperor's tomb to be introduced to you below is very simple. It can be said that it is the most roller in China.

It is the tomb of Emperor Song Shao. As the last emperor Zhao Yan's tomb during the Southern Song Dynasty, it is estimated that few people know where it is. It is located near Chi Emperor Road, Small Emperor Road, Small Emperor Road, Chongsong Street, Nanshan District, Shenzhen. The tomb of the emperor of the Song Dynasty was rarely known in the downtown, because the tomb looks really ordinary, just like an ordinary cemetery, there is no greatness of the ancient emperor's mausoleum, so it is often ignored. But those who know the history of this cemetery will respect the low -key emperor's tomb.

According to historical records, Zhao Yan was the ninth emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty and the last emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty. It was known as the Emperor Song Dynasty, Emperor Song Shao or Xiangxing Emperor in history. Zhao Yan is the third son of Song Duzong. He was born in 1271 AD and inherited the throne in 1278. He is reigned for 313 days. He is only 8 years old. Why is it dying so young? There is still a touching story behind this. In 1279, the Southern Song Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty started a decisive battle in Yashan. It was unyielding to death.

It is said that after Zhao Yan's death, his body drifted to Chiwan Beach, and was unexpectedly discovered by the old monk at the Tianhou Temple. He learned that the child's corpse was the remains of the Emperor, so the local people buried Zhao Yan at the foot of Xiaonan Mountain on the west of Tianhou Temple. Essence So now everyone sees Song Shao's Mausoleum just as a very ordinary cemetery, and there is no grand and spectacular that the emperor should have. Although the Song Shao Emperor's Mausoleum was repaired and expanded later, the area of ​​the entire tomb was only available. To 5000 square meters.

When you walk into the Song Shaoying Tomb, you will find that the entire cemetery is almost almost at a glance. There are altars and platforms in front of the tomb. There is a stone lion on the left and right. There is a large stone monument in the tomb. There are eight large characters in the middle of the "Song Xiang Qing Qing Qing Emperor's Mausoleum". In today's Yan Song Sai, Chief of Chiwan here Gong Huang's Mausoleum. " Behind the big stone monument is Zhao Yan's grave pile. There are two arc fences in the grave pile. The top surface of the front section is plastic with a auspicious cloud arched moon.

On the east side of the mausoleum, there is a Quanzhou Baishi monument. It is the tombstone of Song Shao's Mausoleum. The construction of the Emperor Song Shao Emperor. Behind the stele, there are eight characters "Yahai Qianlong, Emperor Chiwan Yan", and the fonts are strong and powerful.

On the west side of the mausoleum, a stone statue of Lu Xiulf, about 4 meters high, carried the stone statue of Emperor Song Shao's jumping sea. It was new for future generations. The stone statue was small but very charm. It can be imagined how helplessness and tragedy of jumping in the sea. Perhaps it was the call of Lu Xiufu's unyielding ethnic festival. From time to time, someone came to worship. It was really the history of Han soulfang, and later generations were praised.

Now that more than 700 years have passed, Song Shao's Mausoleum is still so rude, but the surroundings of the emperor's tomb have become a bustling area. The mausoleum is full of high -rise buildings. It is difficult to find that there is still a emperor's tomb here if you don't look closely. In order to better protect the only emperor's mausoleum in Guangdong, Song Shao's Mausoleum has become the first batch of key cultural relics protection units in Shenzhen. (Text/Nie Juping)
