Qianling Mausoleum is the joint burial mausoleum of Tang Emperor Gaozong Li Zhi and Queen Wu Zetian. Because it is located in the northwest of Chang'an and in the position of Bagua, it is called Qianling. Qianling Mausoleum is located on Liangshan Mountain, 6 kilometers outside the north gate of Qianxian County. Qianling Mausoleum was built in 684 and is one of the most well-preserved mausoleums among the eighteen tombs of the Tang Dynasty. The cemetery originally had two walls, inner and outer. The inner city is 1,450 meters long from east to west, 1,582 meters long from north to south, and 24 meters thick. There is a gate on each side (Qinglong Gate in the east, Baihu Gate in the west, Zhuque Gate in the south, and Xuanwu Gate in the north). The villages near each gate are still named after the gates. The main remains of the ground facilities of Qianling Mausoleum are the stone carvings of the mausoleum. Most of these stone carvings are concentrated outside the Zhuque Gate. According to the "Jinshi Collection" records: There were 13 inscriptions on the throne during the Song and Jin Dynasties, but most of them were eroded by wind and rain. Only in the 13th year of Tianhui (AD 1135), Emperor Taizong of the Jin Dynasty, was inscribed in Jurchen script with the words "Ji Jun" translated in Chinese characters next to it. "Travel Notes" are relatively complete. The Jurchen writings are now extinct, so the Jurchen writings preserved in this stele have become extremely precious materials for studying the history and culture of my country's ethnic minorities.

To the north of the two-way stele, there was originally a stone statue of the 61st chieftain. There are 60 existing statues, which were carved by Wu Zetian in memory of the ethnic minority leaders and foreign envoys who attended Gaozong's funeral. The stone statue wears tight-sleeved clothes, a wide waistband, and leather boots. The name of the country, official position and name are engraved on the back of the body. Liu Bowen in the Ming Dynasty wrote a poem: "The kings are waiting to be erected layer by layer, and the horses are emptying and ready to take off." Guo Moruo also wrote a poem: "The stele without words is still there, and the sixty kings are standing in the open air." This is a description of the majestic appearance of the stone carvings.

The Qianling Mausoleum is majestic in shape and the building is very solid. According to "New Book of Tang·Biography of Yan Shansi", "Qianling Mausoleum's Xuan and Shimen are metallurgically fixed gaps" and are very solid. According to the survey, the tomb passage is 63.1 meters long and 3.9 meters wide, and is entirely filled with stone strips. There are 39 layers of stone strips from the tomb entrance to the tomb door. Each layer is fixed with iron bolts, and the well is filled with molten iron. These situations are consistent with the literature records.

The Qianling Mausoleum is not only magnificent in appearance and solid in construction, but also rich in hidden treasures. Li Zhi loved calligraphy during his lifetime and collected it extensively. In his last will and testament, he buried the calligraphy he collected in his tomb. Both Li Zhi and Wu Zetian were in the prime of the Tang Dynasty. According to surveys, although the Qianling Mausoleum has been in existence for more than 1,000 years, it has not been stolen. It can be imagined from the above that the cultural relics inside the Qianling Mausoleum must be very rich and extremely precious. The scope of Qianling Mausoleum is very wide. In addition to the mountain mausoleum, it also includes 17 accompanying tombs in the northeastern area of ??the county. These tombs include the tombs of princes, princesses and ministers. The burial mounds of these tombs are basically well preserved, and some stone carvings are displayed in front of individual tombs. The Qianling Mausoleum is a concentrated representative of the historical cultural relics of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. After liberation, the party and the government allocated funds for reconstruction many times. In 1961, the State Council announced it as a national key cultural relics protection unit. Afterwards, some of the accompanying tombs of the Qianling Mausoleum were excavated, and a large number of cultural relics were unearthed for Chinese and foreign tourists to visit.
