The 2,500-year-old No.1 Qingong Tomb was opened to the public recently in northwest China's Shaanxi Province.

Of the 18 tombs in Fengxiang County, which was a Qin capital during the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476 B.C.), the No.1 Tomb has been confirmed as China's largest. It is 300 meters long and 24.5 meters deep.

More than 3,500 relics have been excavated from it, including an outer-coffin made of yellow cypress that is considered to be China's earliest royal funerary object, according to archeologists.

People can visit the 13,000-square-meter area, the graveyard, some newly established buildings in the Qin style, and a large exhibition hall with relics and replicas.

According to Tian Yaqi, a head of a local archeological team, the graveyard now covers an area of 8,400 square meters, where visitors can see models of 185 corpses buried in the tomb.
