Technical achievements

The overall layout of the building complex is perfect and concise, and the mausoleum is the only composition center. It doesn't live in the center of a square courtyard like Humayun Mausoleum, but at the end of the central axis, with square grass in front. So as soon as you enter the second gate, you will have enough viewing distance and good viewing angle, and the elevation angle is about 1: 4.5.

The colors of the building are quiet and bright. Under the blue sky, the green grass holds the crystal white tomb tower, and the red buildings on both sides reflect it into ice and snow. The reflection is clear and rippling in the clear pool water, and the scene of the fountain splashing water mist is particularly charming. The mausoleum built for the dead is full of joy.
