Among the tombs, Tailing, otherwise known as Tai Mausoleum, was the earliest built and largest tomb of all, belonging to the Yongzheng Emperor. It has the perfect combination of cultural sights and natural landscapes in the cemetery, reflecting the ancient theory of "Man is an integral part of nature".

Chongling, otherwise known as Chong Mausoleum, belongs to the Guangxu Emperor, and is the only tomb visitors can access underground.
