Visit Yinchuan, China: The Western Xia Kingdom Mausoleum
Difficult to imagine a huge mound of mud as a Royal mausoleum. (I'll have to work on my imagination.) But...the beehive-shaped pyramids house the remains of the ancient and powerful Western Xia kingdom (1038–1227 AD), conquered by the Mogols.
Know that this must see in Yinchuan doesn't exactly make for exciting viewing.

【中国旅行】銀川 - 西夏王陵に行ってみた！/ China-Yinchuan:Western Xia Imperial Tombs
銀川（寧夏回族自治区）にある西夏王陵に行ってきました。
日本で写真を見て、なんだコレ！と思ったのがきっかけです。
銀川河東国際空港からタクシーで確か45分くらいでした。
入場料は当時（2017年5月）で75元でした。
またカート利用に20元かかります。
場内は、とってもとっても広いので歩きは危険です（苦笑）
相変わらず空気が悪くて綺麗な動画では無いです。
参考
銀川の西35km、賀蘭山東麓に位置し、50㎢に渡る王陵遺跡です。
西夏時代の9基の王陵と、140余りの王族や官僚の副葬墓が
地勢の起伏に沿って立ち並んでいます。
角楼、門闕、碑亭、外廓、内城、献殿、塔状霊台など、
一連の建築群が現存します。
お椀をひっくりかえしたような形が印象的です。

Western Xia
The Western Xia (Chinese: 西夏; pinyin: Xī Xià; Wade–Giles: Hsi1 Hsia4), also known as the Xi Xia Empire, to the Mongols as the Tangut Empire and to the Tangut people themselves and to the Tibetans as Mi-nyak,[2] was an empire which existed from 1038 to 1227 in what are now the northwestern Chinese provinces of Ningxia, Gansu, eastern Qinghai, northern Shaanxi, northeastern Xinjiang, southwest Inner Mongolia, and southernmost Outer Mongolia, measuring about 800,000 square kilometres (310,000 square miles).[3][4][5] The early capital was established at Ningxia. By the 12th century Tangut power had shifted to Kharakhoto on the border of Mongolia; with the city's utter destruction in 1227 by the Mongols who founded the Mongol Empire, along with the political entity most of its written records and architecture were destroyed. Therefore, its founders and history remained obscure until 20th-century research in the West and in China.
The Western Xia occupied the area round the Hexi Corridor, a stretch of the Silk Road, the most important trade route between North China and Central Asia. They made significant achievements in literature, art, music, and architecture, which was characterized as shining and sparkling.[6] Their extensive stance among the other empires of the Liao, Song, and Jin was attributable to their effective military organizations that integrated cavalry, chariots, archery, shields, artillery (cannons carried on the back of camels), and amphibious troops for combat on land and water
The Pyramids of the Orient
The Western Xia Mausoleum in northwest China boasts the ancient structure of the pyramid. Chow How Ban travels to Ningxia to look for the imperial burial ground that tells the history of the forgotten Western Xia dynasty.
