Construction of Qin Shihuang Mausoleum

The mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor was built in the first year of Qin Dynasty (247 BC) to the second year of Qin Ershi (208 BC), which lasted for 39 years. It is the first large-scale and beautifully designed imperial mausoleum in the history of China. There are two rammed earth walls inside and outside, symbolizing the imperial cities Xianyang and Miyagi.

The mausoleum is located in the south of the inner city, in the shape of a bucket, with a height of 5 1 m and a base circumference of 1.700 m. According to historical records, there are various palaces in the Qinling Mountains, displaying many rare treasures.
