The Qing Dynasty has been dead for a hundred years, why are there still people guarding imperial mausoleum, who will pay the salary, and who are they
China has always been valued in world, because now China has become really strong. In fact, reason why we are now attracting attention of all countries is not only because our current development speed is one of best in world. but also for many other reasons.
Among them, accumulation and long history of culture and history is also reason why people around world pay more attention to China, because it has been mysterious East in eyes of world since ancient times, and sometimes it is called mysterious secret art of East or legendary oriental world, etc., all these show people's curiosity about China.

In fact, over long history of China, China also outperformed other countries in world at that time in terms of economy and other aspects. Bronze products in Shang Dynasty and silk in Western Road of Han Dynasty and so on, all these are concrete manifestations of my country's prominence in world in ancient times.
Of course, period when ancient China enjoyed highest international recognition was Tang Dynasty. At that time, cultural development reached its peak, and after Zhengguang Incident, Tang Dynasty once entered its heyday. Ambassadors from different countries came to our Tang Dynasty for cultural exchange.

Not only learned a lot of our country's advanced ideology and culture, but many countries were annexed to our country at that time, and they paid tribute to us many times, and Tang Dynasty was also period when Buddhism was spread in our country.
The last dynasty was Qing Dynasty, which was last feudal dynasty to rule our country. There were twelve emperors in total, and rulers were Manchus, Aixinghueluo clan. Our modern people should be more familiar with Qing Dynasty.

Because when you turn on TV, there are always many TV dramas with Qing Dynasty as background and theme. Of course, official history and unofficial history are interspersed, but there is no shortage of people's understanding of Qing Dynasty. .
The three dynasties of Kang, Yong and Qian, especially known to us, can be called golden age of Qing dynasty. At that time, China was most unprecedented achievement in Age of Traditional Society. Not only is national power strong, but people are rich and their lives are peaceful.

However, wheel of history does not turn back, when heyday reaches its climax, it is doomed to decline. At end of Qing Dynasty, rulers, accustomed to claiming themselves as highest heavenly kingdom, began to close country, unable to see or acknowledge development of outside world and their own decline and decay. Ready to face fact that I'm still behind.
At that time, China could be described as internal problems and external problems. There were countless invasions by foreign powers and various unequal treaties signed and bound, and internal strife and resistance from various classes arose.

For a time, entire society lost its vitality and people lived in poverty. It was during this period, when various factions fought furiously, that inevitable balance of history began to favor revolutionaries, who stood up and made Tilt.
History after that is history of wars and struggles of Chinese people in modern times, and it was this incremental reform that created today's China.

Today we have developed faster than any other country in world. In almost a hundred years we have emerged from humiliation of history and achieved such a great cause. This is our proudest homeland.
Going back to Qing Dynasty we mentioned above, it has been over a hundred years since last generation of Qing Dynasty died. While history cannot be changed, what it has left for future generations is even more valuable experience and vigilance, as well as cultural treasures that have been passed down from generation to generation.

In today's world, many ancient treasures come from Imperial tombs, and protecting and recovering Imperial tombs is also very important. Why are some people willing to wait for tomb of Qing Dynasty, which has a history of a hundred years? years?
The imperial tombs of Qing Dynasty are a real theme in story, and tomb raiders are also rushing in an endless stream, which adds a lot of mysteries to story. Qing dynasty imperial tombs strong>, this is most fundamental reason why imperial mausoleum was garrisoned all time, and time has come to this day.

The activity of guarding tomb in accordance with official position at beginning has basically become a kind of voluntary labor today, and main reason is that there are a small number of people who adhere to Imperial Tomb. The vast majority are descendants of royal family of Qing Dynasty at a time when Qing Dynasty was on verge of collapse.
The vast majority of people do not have opportunity to return, so they guard tombs of their ancestors all their lives. Later, in order to allow last emperor, Pu Yi, to voluntarily abdicate, some rulers would guard emperor's mausoleum of Qing Dynasty as one of conditions for his abdication.

And it can also largely solve legacy of Qing Dynasty veterans at that time, but long river of history has gradually forgotten about it, and most people now build villages according to mausoleum, cultivate and harvest and guard mausoleum. from generation to generation.
Although during Qing Dynasty, mausoleum guards were a job with a good income and could support their families, but now that feudal society has long ended, people no longer pay attention to significance of mausoleum guards, but this is still not fully recognized. Forget there is still a group of persistent people, Stay true to original intent.
