Yongling Park officially opened on October 1, 2009. Yongling, also known as Wang Jian’s Tomb, is located at Sandong Bridge outside the west gate of Chengdu City. Wang Jian (847-918) was awarded the title of King of Shu by Emperor Zhaozong of Tang for his bravery in battle. In 907 AD, the Tang Dynasty perished, and Wang Jian was proclaimed emperor. He was also known as Qianshu in history, and was buried at Sandong Bridge after his death. The tomb was excavated and confirmed by people in 1942. In 1961, it was listed as a national key cultural relic protection unit by the State Council.
