It is located just 125 kilometers to the east of Beijing. The tombs are the largest, most complete and best preserved mausoleum complex in China. The tomb complex was initially established in 1663 when the dynasty was ruled by the fourth emperor – Emperor Kangxi. Construction lasted until 1908 when Empress Dowager Cixi was buried. During this 247 years, the tomb complex witnessed the ups and downs of the dynasty.

All of them are of great cultural and artistic significance.
At present, only four cemeteries – Yuling Tomb, Eastern and Western Dowager Tombs, and Xiangfei Tomb are open to tourists.
