The Zhao Mausoleum is situated in the Beiling Park, the largest park in Shenyang City, north to the Taishan Road in the Huanggu District. The Zhao Mausoleum is the mausoleum of Emperor Huang Taiji and his queen, Xiao Duan Wen Borjijite. Since it is located in the north of Shenyang, it is also called the Northern Mausoleum. 

Covering an area of 4,500,000 square meters, Zhao Mausoleum was the largest one among the "three Mausoleums outside the Shanhaiguan Pass" before the Qing State entered the pass, and the main part of the Beiling Park.

The Three Imperial Tombs of the Qing Dynasty in Liaoning Province include the Yongling Tomb, the Fuling Tomb, and the Zhaoling Tomb, all built in the 17th century. Constructed for the founding emperors of the Qing Dynasty and their ancestors, the tombs follow the precepts of traditional Chinese geomancy and fengshui theory. They feature rich decoration of stone statues and carvings and tiles with dragon motifs, illustrating the development of the funerary architecture of the Qing Dynasty. The three tomb complexes, and their numerous edifices, combine traditions.

The three tombs have been inscribed on world heritage list on July 1.

The Beiling Park has the East Lake, the Youth Lake in the southeast, Fangxiu Garden in the southwest, and sequestered trees, singing birds and fragrant flowers in the north. The whole park boasts verdant trees and old pines reaching the sky.
