Huangdi Mausoleum, memorial mausoleum of legendary Huangdi, is the most important ancient grave site in China. After many years' development and construction, it became not only a mausoleum, but a key point of interest for historical Chinese culture for China city tour packages. The main sights in this scenic spot are Huangdi Mausoleum and Xuanyuan Temple. Before visiting this location, one should know about Huangdi in detail.

For Xian day trips, the Xuanyuan Temple sits near the front of the scenic park area, and the Huangdi Mausoleum is near the back. The Yellow Emperor Mausoleum Scenic Area has about 60,000 cypress trees called the Yellow Emperor Mausoleum Scenic Area. The scenic area covers about 300 hectares or about 750 acres, so it is quite big. The park area is divided into two parts called the Tomb Area and the Xuanyuan Area. The Xuanyuan area has several pieces of construction.

In the Xuanyuan Area, popular place for Classic China travel, the Xuanyuan Temple was built in the 1990s. Whatever was at the site previously was destroyed during the Cultural Revolution. It is a very big structure that is said to be made completely of granite and that measures about 8,000 square meters. In the structure is a sculpture of the Yellow Emperor and a piece of wood called the Spirit Tablet that people can worship. There are also inscriptions that were written by China's modern rulers including Sun Yatsen.
