Introduction to Weng Zhong: Weng Zhong is commonly known as "Stone Man". Made in the Tang Dynasty and after the Qianling Mausoleum, 10 pairs of courtiers (stone figures) on both sides of the Shinto served as ceremonial guards to reflect the concept of patriarchal order. The stone figures at Qiaoling are tall and majestic (height ranges from 3.67 meters to 4.28 meters). They are the tallest among all Tang tombs, and most of them are well preserved. The stone figures are all dressed in the garb of a Zhige general, with a cuckoo crown on their head, a flying eagle in the middle, and a complimentary robe. They wear broad belts, high-heeled shoes, and swords in both hands. Their facial expressions are solemn and solemn. Some are staring into the distance, and some are bowing their eyebrows in deep thought. They have different shapes and can be regarded as art treasures.
