The Fuling Tomb of the Qing Dynasty was the mausoleum of Nu'erhachi(Emperor Taizu) and Empress Xiaoci Yehenala. As it is situated in the eastern suburbs of the old city of Shenyang, it is popularly called the East Tomb. It was buit in the 1629 in the reign of Emperor Tiancong of Late Jin Dynasty.

We passed by Fruits House, Vessels House and Tea House, which were used to store sacrificial offerings. And then we came to the Square City, which is the main architechtrues of Fuling Tomb. All around it was made by some grey stone and there are four pavillions standing on each corner.

The following is Long'en Gate, which is the South Gate of Square City, and it is also called Wufeng building. And it is three-storey building. It looks magnificent! Although it has weathered much wind and rain, it is still beautiful.

从碑亭楼出来，路过一些果房，涤器房、茶膳房，这些房间都是用于摆放祭祀时的用品。然后我们就来到了陵区主体建筑方城。四周用青砖筑起来的城墙，在城墙上的四角设有角楼。

下面的建筑就是隆恩门，它是方城的正南门，又叫五凤楼。它是一个三层门楼的结构。看起来特别宏伟壮观。虽然经过多年的风风雨雨，仍能表现出当年的壮美。

The bolt is on the outside.
门栓在外面。

We entered it through the Long'en Gate. The middle building is Long'en Hall, and there are Eastern Side Hall and Western Side Hall on both sides of it.

从隆恩门进来，正中的建筑是隆恩殿，东部的是东配殿，西部的是西配殿。

The palace roof was made by glazed golden tiles, shimmering in the sunlight. The pole are red.

The carved beams and painted rafters-a richly omamented building. All these look a beautiful picture.

屋顶全部是黄色的琉璃瓦，廊柱全部是红色的。梁间都是精美的壁画。清代的建筑一般都是黄瓦，红柱，与周围的青山绿水搭配真是美如画。

Intricate carvings in jade and marble fill these steps and tell stories about ancient Chinese history.
台阶上是雕刻精致的大理石，似乎诉说着古老的故事。

As the first imperial mausoleum of the Qing Dynasty, Fuling Tomb basically inherited the mausoleum system of the Ming Dynasty, its architectures reflected the characteristic of Manchu Nationality and local style. It was a unique imperial mausoleum architectural complex.

作为清朝第一个皇家陵墓，福陵建筑不仅有明朝时期的风貌，还体现了满族和当地特色形式。是一个独特的帝王建筑群。
