  1. Xuanyuan Temple
    Start · Entrance
    Enter the Xuanyuan Temple: inside the Hall of the Humanistic Ancestor, the statue of the Yellow Emperor stands solemn, and in front is the "Yellow Emperor's Hand-Planted Cypress," about 5,000 years old—the oldest in the world. About 1 hour. Why this route: Xuanyuan Temple is the core site for worshipping the Yellow Emperor, and the ancient cypress is awe-inspiring.
  2. Hall of Human Ancestor
    about 430 m (straight line) from the previous stop · Sight
  3. Huangdi Cypress
    about 480 m (straight line) from the previous stop · Sight
  4. Sacrifice Square
    about 480 m (straight line) from the previous stop · Sight
    Visit the Sacrificial Plaza: the main venue of the Qingming public memorial ceremony, with a giant Yellow Emperor statue and impressive chime bells and bronze cauldrons. About 40 minutes. Why this route: The memorial plaza is the modern expression of the "Humanistic Ancestor."
  5. Huangdi Mausoleum
    about 10 m (straight line) from the previous stop · Sight
    Take the shuttle cart up Qiaoshan: ancient cypresses stand in rows, the burial mound rises high, with the "Qiaoshan Dragon Ride" stele in front and views over the Jushui River encircling it. About 1 hour. Why this route: Pay respects at the mausoleum and stand where the Yellow Emperor rests.
