Stone mausoleum of the Ngo family

Stone mausoleum of the Ngo family

(BGDT) - The mausoleum has the Chinese name Linh Quang Tu, in Thai Son commune, worshiping General Ngo Cong Que, who was a master of literature and martial arts, always devoted to the people and the country. The mausoleum was built in 1697 and continued to be renovated in 1714. The mausoleum has a rectangular plan, facing south with an area of ​​about 400m2. The gate leading to the mausoleum is built in a rolling arch style, with reliefs on both sides of the door of two boxers holding maces. Outside the gate there is a stone dog carved in a realistic style. Through the gate, on both sides of the Shinto path are adoring statues and incense burners, including: A pair of elephants in costume, a pair of men and horses, and a pair of reclining animals. The middle incense burner is made of quite high stone, on both sides there are a pair of cows sitting with their heads held high. In front of the incense burner there are 2 high stone tables, behind there is a large and low stone table placed quite close to the entrance to the tomb used to place offerings during Tet. The structure of the tomb is a rectangular salt stone wall with an area of ​​15x12.5m and a stone wall height of nearly 2m. The tomb gate is carved with quite high reliefs. The center is a square stone tower with two curved roofs. This is where Ngo Cong Que's body is preserved. The second floor has four-sided doors with four meticulously carved tiger reliefs. According to Mr. Nguyen Quang Chinh, Head of the Culture and Information Department of Hiep Hoa district, among the mausoleum system in Bac Giang, this is the most intact relic site. The mausoleum was recognized as a national historical and cultural relic in 1964. The difference of this mausoleum is that the construction material is mainly rock salt. The sculptures here are mostly under 1m high, so they fit very well with the overall architectural model and proportions. Notably, the Ngo family's descendants are very interested in preserving their father's legacy. In addition to contributing funds for renovation and embellishment, we also sent people to take care of and protect the Tomb area. SOURCE: Bac Giang Newspaper
