Tongshan Chuangwang Mausoleum Scenic Spot Travel Guide

Scenic spot introduction:

Tongshan Chuangwang Tomb is the place where Li Zicheng, the leader of the peasant uprising in the late Ming Dynasty, was martyred. It is also the only mausoleum of the leader of the peasant uprising in my country. The Mausoleum of King Chuang is located at the foot of Xiaoyue Mountain at the western foot of Jiugong Mountain. It is surrounded by stone walls and ancillary buildings like a "little Great Wall". It consists of a gatehouse, a tomb, and an exhibition hall. After more than a hundred years of ups and downs, it still remains the same. The displays in the scenic area The museum collects many precious cultural relics such as Li Zicheng's gilded stirrups and historical records from different eras.

Attractions distribution:

According to records, in 1645 AD (the second year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty), Li Zicheng led his troops to retreat from Xiangyang to Wuchang in a hurry. After repeated defeats, he also wanted to conquer Jinling. Reluctantly, the Qing generals Azige, Duoduo and other divisional divisions pursued him, so Li Zicheng had no choice but to "lead his own force" and after many twists and turns, he attempted to occupy Jiugong Mountain. In Lijiapu, Tongshan, Li Zicheng was surrounded and killed by Qing soldiers. He "jumped off alone" and got rid of the Qing soldiers' pursuit. However, due to my unfamiliarity with the mountainous geography, people and customs of this area, I mistakenly went to Huluzao and hiked Gaohu Niuji Ridge alone. Later, because he "begged for food from the woodcutter", he was killed by the leader of the township brave Cheng Jiubo and others with a crossbow. Afterwards, "if some villagers took pity on him, they would bury him in the grass." In 1952, the Tongshan County Government protected King Chuang's Mausoleum as a cultural relic. Since 1975, the state has allocated funds year by year to repair and protect it.
