The ancient tomb of Princess Fuqing of the Ming Dynasty is buried in Nanjing

Today I will take you to explore a well-preserved Ming Dynasty princess tomb that has been found in China so far. There is a sarcophagus bed here, this sarcophagus bed is not the sarcophagus bed in the tomb of Princess Fuqing, because this Deng Fu Mountain is now a stone carving park, which stores a lot of scattered stone carvings excavated from various dynasties, and this sarcophagus bed was excavated from the tomb of the Duke of Song Guo at that time, but it was placed here for a display.

Princess Fuqing is the eighth daughter of Zhu Yuanzhang, so this place is also called the Tomb of the Eighth Princess. Princess Fuqing has been brilliant since childhood, not only proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, and he knows how the sages of the world govern the country, which is deeply loved by Zhu Yuanzhang.
