About Taibo
Taibo Tomb, being the first ancient tomb south of Yangtze River and also known as King of Wu Mound or Royal Mausoleum, is now listed as an important heritage site under state protection. It was built by imperial edict in 154 A.D. during the second year of Yongxing in the Eastern Han Dynasty with the Epitaph of Taibo written by Mi Bao, the chief of the Wu Prefecture. In 1983, the Wuxi County Government of Jiangsu Province allocated funds to repair the Tomb of Taibo. In 1999, the tomb was again renovated and expanded. In 2006, the Wu's Clan Association of the Most Virtuous donated money to build the Tower of Yangzhi (Tower of Respect &Admiration) and to make a statue of Taibo. In 2006, the name of this tomb was changed to Taibo Mausoleum and became listed by the State Council as a Key Cultural Relic Unit under State Protection.
