The Mausoleum is very different from similar structures since it has built right in the city and is also accessible from the ground level. It has a circular base that measures 80 meters and stands at a height of 15 meters. There are 14 archways made of grey bricks. The largest brick measures 27x17x7 inches and holds the size record for buildings above the ground. The Mausoleum is an important Chinese architecture.

The burial chamber is partitioned by wooden doors into three parts. The coffin rests on a coffin bed in the middle chamber. On three sides of the bed, you will find murals of 24 musicians with regional instruments craved into stones. These are the only known court musical band images unearthed from the Tang Dynasty period. A stone statue of Wang Jian stands on the bed in the back chamber with all his royal splendour. The bed itself is embossed with two dragons playing with a ball on the facet, and with lions on each side. It is considered to be the most exquisite and valuable of its kind.
