Gates to the North Tomb |
Every part of the walls of the tombs are covered in relief work. |
All of the old wooden buildings are covered in paint from the 1600's. |
From the caption: "It is said to be a kind of mythical deer often appearing at the peaceful and flourishing age. As an auspicious beast, it shows the kindness and wisdom of the emperor." |
The tomb itself. The emperor is buried beneath the mound and an elm tree was planted on top the day after the funeral. |
