Mongolian scenic spots and historic sites

I hope it will help you: Genghis Khan Mausoleum Genghis Khan Mausoleum is located in Gandell Grassland in Ejinhoro, central Ordos Plateau, covering an area of 55,000 square meters, with a building area of 1500 square meters. Surrounded by high red walls, three interconnected Mongolian domed jinding halls stand tall. Genghis Khan, a generation of lean Genghis Khan who conquered the world in the history of the Chinese nation, was buried here. The mausoleum of Genghis Khan faces south and has a magnificent eaves. The main building, the Mausoleum Palace, consists of six parts: the main hall, the back hall, the east-west hall and the east-west hall. The main hall is 26 meters high, with a Mongolian dome, beautiful cylindrical decoration and auspicious clouds inlaid with yellow and blue glazed tiles; Below is a double blue octagonal cornice. The east and west halls are slightly lower than the main hall, and the top is the same as the main hall, with a single top. Total length of the main hall from east to west 100 meter. In the center of the hall is a tall white marble statue of Genghis Khan, in front of which is a butter burning lamp and various sacrifices. Behind the hall next to the bedroom, there are four yurts covered with yellow satin. The bag contains the coffins of Genghis Khan and his wife Kyle Poirot, his second wife Hulun, his third wife Xu Yi, his younger brothers Bailey Gutai and Hasal, his fourth son Torre and his wife Ixhiatu. The West Hall is dedicated to Suludin (spear), combat knives, swords and saddles symbolizing Genghis Khan's God of War. There are large-scale color murals painted in the main hall, which vividly depict Genghis Khan's extraordinary life, social life in the Yuan Empire era and local conditions and customs at that time. Next to Genghis Khan's mausoleum, there is also a Genghis Khan Palace, which is modeled after the layout of Genghis Khan Palace in 1206, that is, when he was in a sweat position. People also call it Yuan Dynasty Village. The palace consists of the welcoming archway, the grand palace gate, the jinding tent, the left and right halls, the Khan selection platform, the shooting range and the racecourse. According to legend, when Genghis Khan went to Xixia, he passed through the land of Ejinhoro today. When he immediately looked on and missed this grassland with abundant water plants and deer, his whip was suddenly lost. He seemed to realize something and immediately recited a poem: "Jin Lu, Hua Jiao, the hometown of birds singing in Dai Sheng, the place where the declining dynasty was revived, and the country where the white-haired old man enjoyed happiness." And said to the left and right, "I can be buried here after I die." Later, after Genghis Khan's death, when the hearse pulled his body back to his hometown in Mongolia for burial, when he arrived at the place where he was reciting poems, the wheels suddenly got stuck in the mud, and even though so many people from five tribes used it to pack horses, it didn't move. Later, people remembered Genghis Khan's words before his death, so they built a mausoleum for him here and called it "Ejinhoro" (Mongolian, meaning "the holy land of the monarch"). The legend is magical and interesting, but in fact Genghis Khan is not really buried here. Because according to the Mongolian aristocrats at that time, the country could not afford to build a tomb, and when it was buried, it was leveled with 10 thousand horses, and the camel was crushed to death on it, guarded by thousands of horses. Spring grass will be born next year, and it will be scattered on the account. The secret burial custom of "looking flat and showing, people don't know" has always been uncertain about Genghis Khan's real resting place. However, in order to sacrifice him, later generations put his eight white ears (Erdos, Palace Account) on the plateau between Altai Mountain and Kent Mountain as his tomb, which is called "Eight White Rooms". Until the Yuan Dynasty, the Mongolian people sacrificed to Genghis Khan every year. All the important ceremonies were also held in front of the "Eight White Rooms". In the middle of Northern Yuan Dynasty (Tianshun period of Ming Dynasty), Ordos (plural form of "palace" in Mongolian and Chinese, meaning "tribe guarding palace tents") was stationed here, and "Babaifang" moved here. Dayan Khan also sent his third son, Baal Sparrow, as the leader, leading his troops to guard the "Eight White Houses". At the beginning of Qing Dynasty, Yikezhao League was established, and the "Eight White Rooms" were dedicated near the King of Yikezhao League. 1649 (the sixth year of Shunzhi in Qing Dynasty), the county king of Ergun Banner, the left-wing banner of Ordos, was appointed as the leader of Yikezhao League. He moved the "Eight White Houses" to the left-wing Zhongqi under his jurisdiction, which is now the site of Yijinhuoluo Banner. Since then, Genghis Khan's coffin was placed in Ejinhoro, a grassland in Ordos today, and was guarded and sacrificed by Daur people for more than 300 years. 1939, in order to avoid the war and protect the mausoleum from the Japanese invaders, the Commissioner of Nanjing National Government moved the mausoleum of Genghis Khan to Xinglong Mountain in Yuzhong County, Gansu Province. 1949 moved to Ta 'er Temple in Huangzhong County, Qinghai Province. After the founding of New China, under the care of the Central People's Government, in the spring of 1954, the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region formed a delegation to welcome the mausoleum of Genghis Khan and made a special trip to Ta 'er Temple to welcome the spirit. /kloc-in April, the coffin was transported back to Ejinhoro. Ulanhu led the party and government organs of the autonomous region and the leaders of various league flags to hold a grand ceremony of offering sacrifices to the mausoleum together with tens of thousands of Mongolian and Han people in Yimeng. To commemorate this great Mongolian hero, the central government allocated 800,000 yuan to rebuild Genghis Khan Cemetery.
