A brief introduction to Zhou Zuling's history
It is named after a famous tomb on the top of the mountain-the tomb of Bubaling, the ancestor of Zhou people. According to historical records, after Zhou's ancestor lost his agricultural official, he moved westward to settle in Qingcheng, Qingyang, and engaged in agricultural farming. He created the farming culture of Chinese civilization in Qingyang, Longdong, and became the first Zhou leader with accurate historical records. Because of his outstanding achievements, people buried him on this mountain after his death, which was magnificent.
Zhou Zuling has a long history, and Zhong Ling has been a scenic spot since ancient times. First of all, from Fengcheng to the foot of Zhouzuling Mountain, you have to go through dense forest belts and winding and rugged simple roads to reach the parking lot. The building above the parking lot is connected by 822 stone steps. The overall layout of Zhouzu Cultural Area on the Peak is rigorous and standardized.

First of all, the memorial archway of Zhaozhou Saint Zu has four big characters inscribed by General Yang Chengwu on the front, and two couplets are engraved on four pillars on both sides of the characters. Couplets are the immortals of Wangtianmen, Three Emperors and Five Emperors, Mingfeng of Zhou Zu and Zhouqimi of Siqing, and they are outstanding. Couplets are the first time to know the real world. On the back of the memorial archway, there are four characters of Zhong Ling and Yu Xiu, which pass through the memorial archway, and on the front is the Zhouzu Hall, which was built here.
On the front of the main hall, there are three sculptures of Zhou Zubufat, his son Jutao and Sun Gongliu, which are 2.8 meters high and lifelike. There are ten portraits of celebrating festivals and royal servants hanging on both sides of the hall, and the whole hall looks elegant and solemn. The northwest corner of Zhou Zudian is the mausoleum pavilion of Zhou Zubufa.
