The perspective is taken from an elevated vantage point, highlighting the traditional brickwork and the multi-tiered gate towers that define this UNESCO World Heritage site.

It serves as a significant historical document of Manchu imperial architecture and the preservation of the burial site of Emperor Huang Taiji.
