The [[Qing Dynasty]] had 12 emperors, of whom 10 ruled from [[Beijing]]. All the emperors had their own massive tombs built in Zunhua and Yixian of [[Hebei Province]], except for the last emperor, [[Puyi]]. As the two mausoleum areas are located east and west of Beijing, they are called “East Mausoleums of the Qing Dynasty” and “West Mausoleums of the Qing Dynasty.” Before the Qing made Beijing its capital, three mausoleums were built, namely, the '''Yongling Mausoleum''' for ancestors of the Qing imperial family, the Fuling Mausoleum for Nurhachi, and the Zhaoling Mausoleum for Huangtaiji, collectively known as “Three Imperial Mausoleums of Early Qing Dynasty” or the “Three Mausoleums North of the Great Wall.” The three mausoleums have all been listed as world heritage sites by the 28th World Heritage Commission on July 1, 2004.

The Yongling Mausoleum is located in the town of Yongling, Xinbin Manchu Autonomous County, [[Liaoning Province]]. It was built for the ancestors of the Aisin Giorro family, and contained the remains of the father, grandfather and great-grandfather of the first Qing emperor, Nurhachi (1559-1626).
