Zhaojun Tomb

The Zhaojun Tomb, located beside a river in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, the People's Republic of China, is said to be the resting place of Wang Zhaojun, a commoner woman from the Chinese Han Empire who married a Xiongnu Chanyu. The cemetery is 1.3-hectare, with a 33-metre mound containing Zhaojun's coffin, making it a landmark of the region.

The first Chinese mention of the cemetery in written record is in the Tang Dynasty, by Du You in A Comprehensive Guide (Tong Dian).

It is called by the local Mongols Temür Urkhu, meaning "Iron Wall". The nickname "Green Mound" (qin1 zhong3) refers to a legend that in autumn, when grass and trees wither, those plants on the cemetery mound continue to prosper.
