The Western Xia Dynasty was destroyed overnight.

It was a country established by ethnic minorities. Despite its small and barren land, it had a splendid civilization. It defeated the Northern Song Dynasty and resisted the Liao Dynasty and Mongolia. Genghis Khan also died in front of the city of this country. However, overnight, it was tragically destroyed, and the royal family was slaughtered. The palace was destroyed and completely disappeared from the map of China. This country is the Western Xia. Today, only the huge rammed earth towers under Helan Mountain still stand. Looking through historical books, there are very few records about the Western Xia. It was established by the Dangxiang people, a nomadic people from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Li Yuanhao was the founding emperor of the Western Xia. He reformed the bureaucracy of the Western Xia people, promulgated the Western Xia script, opened up the Hexi Corridor, and divided the world equally with the Liao and Song Dynasties. Unfortunately, he was cruel and lustful and died at the hands of his own son. The Western Xia Museum is located in the Western Xia Mausoleum Scenic Area and focuses on the display of Western Xia history and culture. It is worth a visit before visiting the Western Xia Mausoleum. Western Xia Mausoleum
