What's the secret of the legendary Shenyang Beiling underground palace?

Zhaoling is in the north of the ancient city of Shenyang, so it is also called Beiling. There are many legends circulating in Beiling, which makes it particularly mysterious in people's hearts. So what is the secret of Beiling? Today, I will share with you two legends that have been said a lot.

The two-pillar gate in Beiling is different from that in other places. Although there is a skygazing gate at the top of the stone pillar, the significance of these two skygazing gates is extraordinary. It is said that when carving these two looking up to heaven, the craftsman accidentally cut his hand and spilled blood on them.

Looking up to heaven with human blood was later illuminated by the essence of the sun and the moon, so these two looking up to heaven became fine over time. It is said that these two watchmen often sneak out to play in the middle of the night when people are not looking. Some people see them running and playing in the fields.

Later, it was also known by the emperor. The emperor was very angry and immediately sent someone to lock up the two looking up to heaven with chains. Most of the observation towers on the two-pillar doors are opposite, but the observation tower in Beiling is opposite to the underground palace. It is said that the purpose of doing this is to make them repent and apologize to the emperor.

The "dark passage" to the underground palace

Once an old man told a reporter an unforgettable experience. I remember it was the autumn of 1949, and the old man was ordered to drive two museum experts and an 80-year-old man to Beiling. The old man claimed to be a worker who had repaired Beiling. The purpose of their trip was to find the entrance to the underground palace of Beiling.

After getting off the bus, the four of them strolled past the gate of Daming Building, and then stopped on a stone slab about two meters north of the gate. The 80-year-old man pointed to the big stone slab on the ground and said to the two experts, look, this is the entrance to the "back road".

The old man went on to say, I told you when I came. I am a bricklayer and once participated in the maintenance of Beiling here. At that time, our foreman brought several of us here. When we went in, we found an "eternal lamp" with a curtain hanging inside. The scene is spectacular! After that, there have been several rumors about the "Beiling Dark Passage", but the authenticity remains to be verified.

Therefore, all kinds of legends cast a mysterious veil on Beiling, because the more it can't be confirmed in a short time, the more it can't solve people's doubts, and then people's curiosity will become heavier and heavier.
