How many ancient tombs are there in Xi 'an underground?

No one can tell exactly how many ancient tombs are underground in Xi 'an. After all, the gates of Xi 'an have not all been dug up. Now, there are many ancient tombs at the gates of Xi. As a person from Xi, I witnessed the construction of Xi subway. Every subway will dig out several ancient tombs, and it will reach Line 5 in 2020. There are still several subways under construction, and there are also subways that have been changed because of the suspension of construction of ancient tombs. There are many ancient tombs in Xi 'an. Xi is a famous historical city. It was once the capital of thirteen dynasties in the history of China, and the most prosperous capital of the Tang Dynasty was also in Xi 'an, which also created such a famous historical and cultural city. Next, let's talk about why there are so many ancient tombs underground in Xi 'an.

1.Xi 'an, an ancient city, was the capital of the13rd dynasty. Xi is one of the most influential capitals in the history of China. The dynasties that once established their capitals here are the Western Zhou Dynasty (about 300 years), the Western Han Dynasty (2 10), the New Dynasty (15), the Eastern Han Dynasty (6 years), the Western Jin Dynasty (Yu), the former Zhao Dynasty (1 1 year) and the former Qin Dynasty. This is an accepted statement, and the most common statement is 17.

Second, ancient cities were not as big as they are now. Ancient cities are not as big as modern cities, so ancient tombs are dug in modern cities. After all, no dynasty would build its own tombs in the city, but today, with the continuous expansion of the city, these tombs have become underground tombs in the city.

Third, most ancient tombs are located outside the ancient city walls of Xi 'an. Most of the ancient tombs excavated in Xi 'an are outside Xi 'an ancient city wall, because in ancient times, there were some fields or wasteland outside Xi 'an ancient city wall. In the Ming Dynasty, the city was as big as the Ming wall of Xi 'an, so the city outside became the graveyard of many officials and rich people, with graves on it.
