These are the three new Qing Dynasty imperial tombs in Liaoning Province, following the Ming Tombs, which were listed in 2000 and 2003. The three Qing Dynasty imperial tombs in Liaoning Province include Yongling, Fuling and Zhaoling, all built in the 17th century. The three tombs were built for the founding emperor of the Qing Dynasty and his ancestors, following traditional Chinese feng shui theory. The tombs are richly decorated with stone statues, carvings and dragon-patterned tiles, reflecting the development of funeral architecture in the Qing Dynasty. The three mausoleum complexes and their many buildings combine the traditions of the previous dynasty with the new features of Manchu civilization.
