The Qian Tomb was the tomb where Gaozong Lizhi (628-663A.D.), the third emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and Wu Zetian (624-704A.D.), the only woman emperor in Chinese history, were buried together. It’s on the Mount Liang, 6 kilometers north of the Qian county, and 80 kilometers away from the Xi’an City. It was built in 684 A.D., and took 23 years.

It not only had a magnificent appearance, but also stored many things. As recorded in "Sushengjibei", when Tang Gaozong was dying, his last words were to bury in tomb all the drawings and pictures he loved, so there were all kinds of things in the tomb.
