Starting from the two hexagonal stone pillars to the north of the Beiting Pavilion and ending at the Dragon and Phoenix Gate, on both sides of the kilometer long divine path, 24 stone beasts and 12 stone figures are neatly arranged, with vivid shapes and exquisite carvings, deeply loved by tourists. The large quantity, large size, exquisite carving, and good preservation of it are rare in ancient Chinese cemeteries. The stone figures are divided into four categories: meritorious officials, civil officials, and military officials, each with four statues. They were close attendants of the emperor during his lifetime, all of whom were standing statues with hands clasped in water, majestic and devout. The installation of such stone statues in imperial tombs dates back over two thousand years to the Qin and Han dynasties.

This is a magnificent tomb, built in the 19th century and one of the most important royal tombs in Vietnamese history. You can learn about the ancient royal culture and history of Vietnam here.
