How many days does it take to travel to the tomb of Wu Zetian in Ganling, Shaanxi? How high is the tablet without words? Please explain in detail.
The tablet without words is located in Ganling, 50 kilometers northwest of Xianyang City, Shaanxi Province. On the east side of Sima Road, Ganling, it is surrounded by the northern finches, the southern Weng Zhong and the western sacred monument. Magnificent, magnificent.
Ganling is the burial tomb of Tang Gaozong Li Zhi and Wu Zetian. There are two huge stone tablets in front of the tomb, one in the west is called "sacred tablet", and the other in the east is Wu Zetian's wordless tablet. The "memorial tablet" is a tablet erected by Wu Zetian to praise Gao Zong. She also personally wrote more than 5,000 words of inscriptions, blacked out and filled with gold powder. On the east side is Wu Zetian's wordless tablet. Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, emperors and generals hoped to erect a monument after their death, but the only female emperor in China's history did not carve a word on it.
The tablet without words is carved from a complete giant stone carving, which is a giant system among the historical sites in China. It is 7.53 meters high, 2. 1 m wide, 0/.49 meters thick and weighs 98.9 tons, giving people a dignified and heavy aesthetic feeling. There is no inscription on the tablet forehead, only eight dragons are carved at the head of the tablet, which are cleverly intertwined and row upon row, with bare bones and muscles, silent and full of vitality. On both sides of the monument, there are dragon figures, each with a dragon, and the lines are carved and lifelike. On the front of the monument, there is also a line carved lion horse figure (or lion horse fighting figure), whose horse bends its hoof and bows its head, which is gentle and lovely; The lion held his head high, his eyes bright, and he was very dignified. There are many flowers and plants on the monument, and the lines are fine and smooth, so this wordless monument has always been famous.
According to relevant historical records, after Tang Gaozong's death, the site selection, design and construction of Ganling were carried out under the direct guidance of Wu Zetian. As the main large stone carving on the ground of Ganling, the tablet without words was probably set at that time. Judging from the correspondence between the tablet without words and the tablet describing the sacred tablet, it is very likely that these two tablets were erected at the same time. From this point of view, there is no doubt that the tablet without words was erected by Wu Zetian. This wordless tablet, carefully designed and erected by Wu Zetian, not only attracts attention because of its prominent position in the stone carvings of Gan Mausoleum Garden, but also attracts attention and is famous for its exquisite carving art, unique charm and legendary story. When tourists come to Ganling, they almost stop at the monument without saying a word, or stare, or take pictures as a souvenir, or give directions and comments. The tablet without words is not only a symbol of Ganling in the eyes of countless tourists, but also a symbol of Empress Wu Zetian.
