Baota Hill (Pagoda Hill) gained its name from a 44-meter (144-feet) nine-story pagoda standing at its summit. The Pagoda is the symbol of Yan’an and you will see it as you arrive in Yan’an. It is a key historic relic under national protection. Baota hill is crowned at 1136 meters (3727 feet) and the attic of the pagoda is a perfect venue to view the Loess Plateau scenery and get a bird’s eye view of Yan’an City.

The Yellow Emperor (Huangdi in Chinese) is the legendary ancestor of Chinese people and the symbol of Chinese civilization. The mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor is the most important ancient mausoleum in China, praised as the First Mausoleum in China. On the Qingming Festival which usually falls on April 5, Chinese people from different places get together here to hold a memorial ceremony for commemorating the Yellow Emperor. It is located at Mount Qiao, 500 meters (547 yards) north of Huangling County of Yan’an, about 200 kilometers (124 miles) north of Xi’an (the capital city of Shaanxi Province). Therefore Yan’an is considered as the birthplace of Chinese civilization. It is definitely the must-see when people visit Yan’an. Visit Yellow Emperor Mausoleum with our Yanan tour packages, or just ask us to customize a Yanan tour to your needs.
