This mausoleum is on Liang Mountain (Liang Shan) about 80 kilometers from Xi'an. It is one of the major attractions around the city. 

However, it is off the usual path for tour groups, and many people enjoy the scenery and even the trip there for that reason. The route to the mausoleum is along rural roads. This will give you a chance to see a typical Chinese countryside.
