A Han tomb with an entrance fee of 5 yuan, a guide to the Zhongshan Han tomb in Dingzhou

Liu Bei, Uncle Liu Huang, always tells people that he is the twelfth great-grandson of Zhongshan Jing Wang, fearing that others do not know that he is the royal family of the Western Han Dynasty's Zhongshan State. The glory of his ancestors seems to have become his golden sign in the rivers and lakes. So what is Zhongshan State? Who is Zhongshan Jing Wang? 👑Zhongshan State is actually a fiefdom of the Western Han Dynasty, today's Dingzhou, Hebei. I understand it should be like a vassal territory in the Ming Dynasty. Zhongshan Jing Wang is called Liu Sheng, who was the king of Zhongshan for more than 40 years, and is also the ancestor often mentioned by Liu Bei. 💁🏻There is a Zhongshan Han tomb in Dingzhou. The locals firmly believe that this is the tomb of Zhongshan Jing Wang Liu Sheng. No one has ever doubted it for thousands of years. Various era steles stand there, who dares to say it's not? But the excavation of the Han tombs in Mancheng, Hebei, slapped this place in the face. Who is the owner of this Zhongshan Han tomb? It's still unclear. 📸Highlights: The scale of this Han tomb is not large, a small mound + a vaulted brick chamber underground palace. It is said that a jade suit with gold thread has been unearthed, which should be a certain Zhongshan king of Zhongshan State... Many people say there is nothing good to see, but they only charge you an entrance fee of 5 yuan. It is one of the few open Han tomb underground palaces in Hebei. What else do you want? 📌tips: There are many names for this place, 'Zhongshan Han Tomb', 'Beizhuangzi Han Tomb', 'Dingzhou Stone Carving Museum', 'Dingzhou Stele Forest'... But the locals only call it 'Jing Wang Tomb' (stubborn Dingzhou people)
