The altar before Tan Yankai’s tomb is an original relic of Yuanmingyuan Garden.

It took 21 years to complete, involving 200,000 laborers to move 7 million cubic meters of earth. Today the 600-year-old city wall of Nanjing still stands.
- Xiaoling Mausoleum: It was constructed for the first emperor of Ming Dynasty, the Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang. Starting in 1381, it took 25 years to complete the building.
