Introduction

Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum is the tomb of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and his empress. Located at the southern foot of Purple Mountain in Nanjing, it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site as part of the 'Imperial Tombs of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.' The Sacred Way, lined with 12 pairs of stone animals and civil/military official statues, is the most iconic feature. In autumn, the golden ginkgo avenue creates a spectacular scene. The mausoleum's architecture set the standard for all subsequent Ming and Qing imperial tombs.
