Zhu Hu Ming Ning Jing Wang Temple - Hua Shan Hall Introduction
The Ningjing Prince's Tomb is located in Hunei Township, Hunei Village, and is designated as a national third-level historical site. Its main entrance resembles a traditional archway. The Ningjing Prince was a descendant of the Ming Dynasty's founder, the ninth grandson of Emperor Hongwu. In the 37th year of the Yongli era, Zheng Zhilong surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, leading the Ningjing Prince to take his own life. The locals admired his loyalty and integrity, so they buried him alongside the Yuan consort, Lady Luo, in the forest of Hunei Village, creating over a hundred fake tombs to mislead the Qing troops during their search. The tomb was discovered only in the 26th year of the Republic of China and was repaired and commemorated with a monument after the restoration of Taiwan. The main axis ramp of the Ming Ningjing Prince's Tomb area runs through the site, dividing the cemetery into two parts. A stone tablet stands beside it, inscribed with "Ningjing Wang Mu," introducing the life of the Ming Ningjing Prince. There are stone lions flanking both sides of the tomb; on the right side, the garden features a stone pool with an octagonal pavilion on top. In front of the tomb, there are two hundred-year-old banyan trees that provide ample shade, creating a magnificent sight. The area surrounding the tomb is landscaped with a garden, including a pond, a pavilion, and numerous flowers and trees, enhancing the tranquility and cleanliness of the cemetery.
