Scenic spot introduction:

The Tomb of Concubine Yang in Xianyang is actually just the tomb of the concubine. It is located 500 meters west of Mazai Town, Xingping County, Xianyang City and 60 kilometers away from Xi'an. Yang Guifei, named Yuhuan, was born in Huayin, Shaanxi Province. She was proficient in music, good at singing and dancing, and had an all-powerful appearance. She was originally the princess of Li Mao, the eighteenth son of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. She was later called into the palace by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty and was named a female official. Taizhen, in the fourth year of Tianbao's reign, was registered as a noble concubine. During the Anshi Rebellion, when Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty fled to Mazaipo, his entourage led by General Chen Xuanli of the Youbiao Army killed Prime Minister Yang Guozhong and forced Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty to hang Concubine Yang Guizhong to death at the age of 38. Because literati of the past dynasties have left a large number of love stories about Emperor Ming of the Tang Dynasty, the tomb of the imperial concubine is famous all over the world.
